Secret Toffee - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 c. (1 stick) butter
2/3 c. packed brown sugar
24 unsalted soda crackers (more or less)
1 1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate morsels
3/4 c. finely chopped walnuts or toasted almonds

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375\u00b0.
Line the inside of a 13 x 19-inch pan with a good-sized sheet of foil, going about 1-inch up the sides. Melt the butter in a small saucepan; add the brown sugar and boil rapidly until sugar melts and becomes syrupy, about 30 seconds. Pour into the foil-lined pan.
Tilt pan to cover the bottom evenly.
Arrange a layer of the crackers, allowing about 1/8-inch between each.
Bake for 10 minutes.
Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate morsels and nuts over top.
Return to oven 1 minute more.
Remove and spread chocolate evenly over sugar and crackers with spatula.
Refrigerate for 1 hour or more, until firm.
Lift from pan. Peel off foil and break into chunks.
Refrigerate for storage.
