Ingredients
1 package crackers
½ cup butter
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup chocolate chips
¼ tsp sea salt
Directions
1.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2.
Arrange the crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they touch each other slightly.
3.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in the brown sugar until fully dissolved and bubbling.
4.
Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the arranged crackers, making sure each cracker is well-coated.
5.
Bake the crackers in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until the caramel is bubbly and golden brown.
6.
Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips over the hot caramel layer to melt slightly.
7.
Using a spatula, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the caramel-coated crackers for a smooth finish.
8.
Lightly sprinkle sea salt over the warm chocolate layer before letting the bites cool completely.
9.
Once set, break the cracker bites into pieces and store them in an airtight container for freshness.
