Everyone likes this treat and they are surprised that the base is saltine crackers
1 (10 ounce) package saltine crackers (salted)
1 1/2 cups butter
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
2 (12 ounce) packages semisweet chocolate chips *
2 cups chopped almonds
*sometimes I use 1 pack semisweet and 1 pack white chocolate so I look fancy
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 10×15 inch cookie sheet with aluminum foil.
- Place crackers in a singe layer over prepared cookie sheet. Use more or fewer crackers as needed to cover the bottom of your pan.
- In a small saucepan over low heat combine butter and brown sugar; bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes; pour over crackers.
- Bake in preheated oven for 5 minutes. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top. Sprinkle almonds over chocolate chips; using the back of a wooden spoon, press nuts into chocolate.
