Description

Churro saltine toffee is a quick and easy treat that combines the buttery crunch of saltine toffee with the cinnamon-sugar magic of churros. Perfect for parties, holiday gifts, or an irresistible snack, this sweet-and-salty dessert is sure to be a hit!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 sleeve (about 40) saltine crackers
  • 1 cup (225 g) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup (200 g) brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (265 g) white chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup (65 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pan:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, ensuring it covers the edges. Lightly grease with nonstick spray. Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
  2. Make the toffee:
    • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly. Once it begins to boil, continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and bubbly.
    • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Pour over crackers:
    • Pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the saltines, using a spatula to spread it if necessary.
  4. Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbly and evenly spread across the crackers.
  5. Add the chocolate:
    • Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the white chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let sit for 2–3 minutes to melt, then use a spatula to spread the chocolate into an even layer.
  6. Add the churro topping:
    • In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture generously over the melted chocolate.
  7. Cool and break:
    • Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature, or chill in the refrigerator for faster setting. Once hardened, break into pieces and serve.

Notes

  • Use graham crackers or Ritz crackers instead of saltines for a different flavor.
  • For a twist, drizzle melted dark chocolate or caramel over the top.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
