Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup butter
• ½ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.

Step 2

Place the crackers on the foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer, so they overlap like shingles. Melt the butter with brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, bring to a boil, and boil for 3 minutes. Pour the butter mixture evenly over the crackers.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; remove from oven, and sprinkle crackers with chocolate chips.

Step 4

Let stand about 2 minutes, until the chips are melted, and spread them over the crackers with a spreader or kitchen knife. Sprinkle with nuts, if desired. Allow to cool completely, about 1 hour; break into chunks, and store in airtight sealed container.
