Ingredients
Scale
Base and Layers
- 1 box Club Crackers
Caramel Toffee Mixture
- 1 (14 oz) can Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cup Butter
- 1/4 cup Milk
Chocolate Topping
- 2 cups Milk Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Prepare Pan: Line a 9 x 13-inch pan with aluminum foil, ensuring the edges extend over the sides for easy removal later, and spray the foil with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
- First Layer of Crackers: Arrange a layer of Club Crackers evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan to form the base layer.
- Make Caramel Mixture: In a saucepan over low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, butter, and milk. Stir continuously as the butter melts to ensure all ingredients combine smoothly.
- Cook Caramel: Once the butter has melted, increase the heat to medium-high and cook the mixture for 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning and create a thick caramel consistency.
- Layer Caramel and Crackers: Pour one-third of the caramel mixture over the first cracker layer and spread evenly. Then add a second layer of Club Crackers on top, followed by half of the remaining caramel mixture spread evenly. Add the final layer of crackers, then pour and spread the remaining caramel evenly over the top.
- Melt Chocolate: Microwave the milk chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Add Chocolate Topping: Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the final caramel layer to create a glossy, delicious topping.
- Chill and Set: Place the assembled bars in the refrigerator and let them harden completely for best results.
- Cut and Serve: When set, remove bars by lifting the foil edges, invert onto parchment paper with the chocolate side down, and cut into bars for cleaner edges and easy serving.
Notes
- Use non-stick spray on the foil to prevent caramel from sticking and to make removal easier.
- Constant stirring during caramel cooking is crucial to avoid burning and to achieve the perfect texture.
- Cutting the bars chocolate-side down helps to create neat, clean pieces.
- Store bars in an airtight container refrigerated to maintain freshness and texture.
- Allow bars to fully cool and set before slicing to avoid melting or crumbling.
