Recipe type: candy
Serves: 48 pieces
Ingredients
  • 48 Saltine Crackers
  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • ⅓ cup peanut butter
  • 1 12 oz package milk chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup crushed peanuts
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Cover the bottom of a rimmed cookie sheet with soda crackers.
  3. In a small saucepan, bring the butter and brown sugar to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil for exactly three minutes and pour immediately over the saltines.
  4. Spread the mixture to cover the crackers completely.
  5. Bake at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
  6. While crackers are baking, warm up the ⅓ cup peanut butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
  7. When crackers are out of the oven, drizzle the peanut butter evenly over the crackers.
  8. Use a double boiler or a microwave to melt the chocolate chips. If using a microwave, add 1 tsp of canola oil, cook for 30-second intervals, stirring in between until nice and smooth.
  9. Drizzle the amount of chocolate evenly over the crackers and peanut butter. Use the back of a spoon to cover the entire surface.
  10. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and let the treat cool completely before breaking into pieces and serving. The cooling takes 4-6 hours depending on the temperature in your house. You will know they are completely cooled when the chocolate has hardened.
  11. Enjoy!
