Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups pecans, roughly chopped
  • 1 sleeve saltine crackers (about 40 crackers)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Prepare the Baking Sheet:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray. Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer to cover the entire sheet.
  • Make the Toffee:
    • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and salt, stirring constantly until the mixture comes to a boil.
    • Boil gently for 3 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Assemble the Bark:
    • Pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the crackers, spreading with a spatula to coat all the crackers.
    • Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the toffee layer.
  • Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbling and the pecans are lightly toasted.
  • Add the Chocolate:
    • Remove the tray from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee and pecans. Wait 2–3 minutes for the chocolate to soften, then spread it evenly with a spatula to create a smooth layer.
  • Cool and Break Into Pieces:
    • Let the bark cool completely at room temperature, or place it in the refrigerator for faster cooling. Once fully set, break it into pieces and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a salted caramel flavor, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the melted chocolate before it sets.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
  • Use graham crackers instead of saltines for a sweeter base.
