Ingredients

  • 1 sleeve saltine crackers 35 crackers
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 11 oz white chocolate chips
  • green and gold sprinkles for topping

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and line up the saltine crackers in rows.
  • Melt the butter and brown sugar in a sauce pan over medium low heat and slowly bring the mixture to a boil. Be careful not to heat too quickly or your toffee will separate.
  • Boil the mixture for 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly, until thick.
  • Pour the thickened toffee over the saltines and spread it out evenly using a rubber spatula.
  • Bake the toffee covered saltines at 350 degrees for 4–5 minutes, until browned and bubbly on top.
  • Remove the sheet pan from the oven and sprinkle the white chocolate chips over the top of the saltine crackers.
  • After the chocolate sits for 5 minutes and is mostly melted, use the back of a spoon or a rubber spatula to spread it evenly across the crackers.
  • Top the toffee crackers with green and gold sprinkles for St. Patrick's Day.
  • Refrigerate or freeze the leprechaun crack until hardened, then break it into pieces using your hands or a knife.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
