Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar, packed
  • 1 package Graham Crackers (approximately 9 crackers)
  • 1 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
  2. Melt Butter and Sugar: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and brown sugar together, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully combined to form the toffee base.
  3. Arrange Graham Crackers: Place the graham crackers in a single, even layer in the prepared baking pan, covering the entire bottom.
  4. Pour Toffee Mixture: Evenly pour the melted butter and brown sugar mixture over the graham crackers, ensuring thorough coverage for uniform baking.
  5. Bake Toffee: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the toffee mixture becomes bubbly, indicating it’s set and caramelized.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee layer.
  7. Spread Melted Chocolate: Allow the chocolate chips to sit for a few minutes until melted, then spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee surface using a spatula.
  8. Cool and Cut: Let the bars cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate and toffee to firm up before cutting into individual bars.

Notes

  • Optionally, sprinkle chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts or a pinch of sea salt on top after adding the chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • Make sure the toffee mixture bubbles to achieve the right crunchy texture; baking less time may result in a softer bar.
