Toffee Crunch Brownies
Who doesn’t love a good brownie? They’re fudgy, chocolatey, and oh so yum. There are also a million and one recipes for them out there so I’m sure you already have a favorite (or 10), so I’m not here to give you a new brownie recipe. This recipe is how to level UP one of your favorite brownie recipes into something oh-so-decadent (honestly almost considered labeling this recipe the “heart attack” brownie).
These are treat-yo-self brownies to bring to a party where you literally want to show the people what you bring to the table. And that’s a table full of delicious goodies, so basically bring these brownies at your own risk… of having a lot of new BFFs.
How are we going to level up your already favorite brownie you ask? By topping them with the most delicious (and easy) two-ingredient toffee layer and finishing with a salty, crunchy texture paradise – a saltine crunch.

Equipment
- 9×9 inch pan
- Pot
- Bowl
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Parchment Paper
- Baking Tray
- Foil
- Measuring Cups
- Measuring Spoons
Ingredients
- Use your favorite basic brownie recipe or find one on the world wide web if you don’t have one
- 1 cup salted butter 2 sticks
- 1 cup brown sugar lightly packed
- 30 saltine crackers
- 4 tbsp salted butter melted
- ½ tsp salt optional
Instructions
- Grease and line a 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper and then make your favorite brownie recipe according to the instructions BUT underbake it by about three minutes. You will pop these back into the oven with the toffee (keep reading the instructions below)
- Preheat your oven to 350F
- Crush your saltine crackers into small bits – shouldn’t be ground completely, as you want some chunks!
- Place saltine crumbles into a bowl and cover with melted butter and salt. Stir and spread into a single layer on a foil-lined baking tray. You want the mixture to be squished together as it bakes so you can break it into different chunks once it cools.
- Bake for 5-8 minutes, until lightly golden. Remove from oven and cool completely.
- When your brownies have about 10 minutes left, make your toffee. In a pot, combine your butter and sugar and place over medium heat, stirring until the butter and sugar is melted
- Stir continuously and bring to a boil. Boil for two minutes. Be very careful not to burn!
- Remove brownies from the oven
- Pour immediately over baked brownies and place in the oven for 5 minutes
- Remove and let sit for 5 minutes before topping with your saltine crunch.
- Let sit for 30 minutes before removing from the pan and slicing.
