Ingredients
BROWNIE
- Your favorite basic brownie recipe or use a boxed brownie
TOFFEE
- 1 cup salted butter 2 sticks
- 1 cup brown sugar lightly packed
SALTINE CRUNCH
- 30 Club or saltine crackers
- 4 tbsp salted butter melted
- ½ tsp salt optional
Instructions
- Grease and line a 9x9-inch pan with parchment paper. Then make your favorite brownie recipe according to the instructions, BUT underbake it by 3 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350F
- Crush your 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.
