Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create the perfect Christmas Crack:
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place a single layer of saltine crackers on the baking sheet, making sure they are touching and have no gaps in between.
In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar together until it becomes a smooth and bubbly mixture.
Pour the butter and sugar mixture over the crackers, making sure to cover all of them evenly.
Bake in the oven for 5-6 minutes until the crackers are slightly bubbly.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. Let them sit for a minute to melt, then use a spatula to spread the chocolate evenly over the crackers.
While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle crushed candy canes on top for a festive touch.
Let the Christmas Crack cool for about 30 minutes, then break it into pieces and enjoy!
Pro tip: For an extra indulgent treat, drizzle melted white chocolate on top of the peppermint candy canes before letting it cool. This will add a beautiful white and red swirl to your Christmas Crack.
