Description
Irresistibly crunchy, sweet, and utterly addictive, this homemade Halloween Crack is the ultimate party treat! Made with just a few simple ingredients, it’s ready in just 20 minutes.
Ingredients
– 1 sleeve of saltine crackers
– 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
– 1 cup packed brown sugar
– 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
– Assorted Halloween candies (such as candy corn, M&Ms, sprinkles)
Instructions
1. 1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2. Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
3. 3. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar together over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil.
4. 4. Immediately pour the hot caramel-like mixture over the crackers, spreading it evenly to cover them completely.
5. 5. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the topping is bubbly and the crackers are lightly golden.
6. 6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top. Let the chocolate sit for 2-3 minutes, then use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate over the crackers.
7. 7. Sprinkle the assorted Halloween candies over the top while the chocolate is still warm.
8. 8. Let the Halloween Crack cool completely, then break into pieces and serve.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. The crackers will soften slightly over time, but they will still be delicious. For a more uniform appearance, you can cut the cooled Halloween Crack into squares or bars before serving.
