Saltine Cracker Toffee

This Saltine Cracker Toffee offers a fun twist to traditional recipes with the addition of unsweetened coconut flakes.

– 40 Saltine crackers – 2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes – 1 cup salted butter – 1 cup granulated sugar – 1 teaspoon coconut extract – 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

INGREDIENTS

Cover sheet with 40 Saltine crackers. Spread shredded coconut in a single layer on top of crackers. Add butter and sugar to a heavy-bottomed pot. Attach a candy thermometer to the pot.

Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to dissolve  sugar. Increase heat to medium-high. Once the candy starts boiling, stir occasionally, slowly and evenly, until candy reaches 290 F. This is the "hard crack" stage on a candy thermometer.

Pour the mixture evenly over the Saltine crackers and coconut flakes. Spread the toffee mixture with a spatula to cover evenly.

Bake in preheated oven for 4-5 minutes. Remove from oven and add chocolate chips. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate evenly once the chips begin melting. Add remainder of the coconut flakes, sprinkling evenly over the top of the chocolate.

Refrigerate for 2 hours, then cut into squares and serve!
