i wouldn't bother with the cracker recipe. Well la dee da...LOL The cracker one is fricking awesome Exactly! It may not be the real thing but my grands love it. We started making it for Christmas years ago, but the kids are older now and have been known to request a batch at any time of the year ❤️

I make lots of cracker toffee but no chocolate on it. Just cracker, butter and brown sugar. I watched Trisha Yearwood make a version the other day with the brown sugar/butter layer, then she heated some peanut butter and spread that on top (instead of chocolate) and then melted some of those white chocolate melting discs and topped with that. I’m going to try a batch of that with Valentine’s sprinkles for V-day treats this year.

I ate a crap ton of toffee over the holidays and I'm now obsessed with it, lol. It's freaking expensive so I need to learn how to make it. I made it once and it turned out great although now that I KNOW TOFFEE, it wasn't the kind I like best. I made it again & failed miserably. There seems to be 2 different types of toffee: the normal kind that is super hard, shatters like glass when it breaks and gets stuck in your teeth. THEN THERE IS THE KIND that is like heaven, on a cloud, with angels singing. It's hard but not splintering, shards of glass. When you bite it, it just crushes softly but still hard. It's maybe a little thicker and air-ier than the splintering shards of glass type. I need to learn how to make the one where the angels sing. Does anyone know the difference and why one is so much yummier than the other. Is it a secret ingredient, different technique or what? I have no affiliation with this company but THIS TOFFEE is the best thing I have ever eaten in my life. I need to recreate it at my house. TIA! I always got a box of this toffee from work. it has way too many almonds for me. I like my toffee straight up sugar and butter with topping of milk chocolate. I watched a Youtube video of a lady making some in her Ninja foodie. Looked very good and got it done in 20 minutes without using a thermometer.

My mom made English toffee, penuche, and pulled maple taffy for Christmas. Why she would hype up three young kids iout of school for two weeks s beyond me, but it started my love of everything caramel.
As a toffee snob, I would never make the saltines toffee recipe. Not saying I would try it if some mailed me some, but it seems downright wrong to do this to sugar.
