Easy Graham Cracker Toffee
Updated April 09, 2020
Easy Graham Cracker Toffee-you only need 5 ingredients to make this delicious and addicting toffee! It is the perfect treat for the holiday season.
I go cookie crazy every December, but I also like to make other treats, like this Easy Graham Cracker Toffee. It is one of our family’s favorite recipes. I’ve been making this recipe since I was a little kid. Well, I helped a little and ate A LOT:) It tastes just like homemade toffee, but it is SO much easier. You can whip up this tasty toffee in no time, which makes it the perfect treat for the holidays. It is a stress-free treat and everyone LOVES it!
I love this toffee because is a no fail recipe. It comes out perfect every single time.
You only need five ingredients to make the toffee: graham crackers, butter, brown sugar, chocolate chips, and almonds. We like to use Annie’s Honey Grahams, they are our favorite!
I will show you how easy this toffee is to make, just in case you don’t believe me:)
First, line a large baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat (parchment paper or foil will work too). Add a layer of graham crackers.
In a saucepan on the stove, boil the butter and brown sugar together. Pour the hot mixture over the graham crackers. Bake in the oven for 8 minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let the chips sit for about two minutes or until they start to melt.
Use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly over the grahams.
Sprinkle with chopped almonds. If you prefer pecans, go ahead and use them, both are tasty!
Let the toffee sit until the chocolate hardens. You can place the pan in the freezer or fridge to hurry up the process…or you can place the pan outside in the cold. Just make sure the pan is safe, you don’t want any wild animals stealing the toffee:)
When the toffee is set up, break it into pieces and enjoy!
The recipe makes a huge pan of toffee which is a good thing because it is ADDICTING! Once I start eating, I can’t stop. I usually make two pans, one for us and one to share with family and friends.
You can put the toffee in a festive tin or box and give it to your neighbors, co-workers, teachers, friends, and family for Christmas. It is also a great treat to serve at holiday parties or just keep some on hand for when guests drop by!
This Easy Graham Cracker Toffee is one of our favorite holiday treats and we hope you like it too! And make sure you try our Saltine Cracker Toffee too! The saltines add a nice saltiness that you won’t be able to resist!

Easy Graham Cracker Toffee
Ingredients
- 15 Graham Cracker sheets
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat, parchment paper, or aluminum foil. If you are using aluminum foil, spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Place graham crackers in a single layer, touching, on the large baking sheet. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar together over medium-high heat. Bring butter and brown sugar mixture to a boil. Simmer for 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour mixture evenly over graham crackers. Bake for 8 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top of the graham crackers. Let the chocolate chips sit for 2 minutes so they have a chance to melt. Spread melted chocolate with a knife or rubber spatula. Sprinkle almonds or pecans on top.
- Let the graham cracker toffee sit for about 2 hours or until the chocolate hardens. If you are in a hurry, you can refrigerate the toffee for an hour, or freeze for 30 minutes. When chocolate is set up, break the toffee into pieces and enjoy!

ow! I’ve made the saltine version, but never thought to use graham crackers! What a fun take on an old favorite! Love that you used Annie’s too! Yum!
We love using Annie’s Graham Crackers. TOO good:)
This look so good, will be my Christmas gift this year.
It makes a great gift!
OH MY GOODNESS, this looks amazing! I love the graham cracker take on it. You just made a holiday favorite EVEN BETTER! 🙂 You go girl.
It is sooooo good! I hope you like it!
Love this fun Holiday style treat!!
Love this idea! I would not be able to stop munching on these!!
I have a love hate relationship with toffee. Love because it’s the best stuff on earth. Hate because every time I make it I find myself eating over half the pan.
Easy and delicious! Sounds like a winner to me!
I’m sold on anything with toffee. I love how simple this is.
Oh I would love these! yummy!!
Um, five ingredients? Yes please!
This looks amazing, thank you for sharing!

Nicely done with the step-by-step pictures! I know that’s not usually your thing so it was fun to see this time. And this looks much more to my taste than the saltine one people usually make.
Thanks! I wanted to show how easy it really is!
I want to make this for my coworkers this year! Do you use salted almonds or raw?
I use salted because I like the salty kick, but either will work! Enjoy!
OMG! these look incredible. I might have to see if I can do this dairy free- it looks so good!!
So delicious! This is my go to cookie tray desert!
I’ve tried making this but find the sugar and butter mixture doesn’t get under the crackers so i end up with a layer of cracker, layer of toffee and a layer of chocolate. It’s still delicious but it doesn’t look as good. Any ideas why the toffee mixture doesn’t sink the the bottom? Thanks!
That happen to me too.
Hi Maria! Love your site to death! Question- I am cleaning up my diet to do more clean, healthy, sometimes Paleo inspired meals/desserts. I made your mushroom quinoa soup last week and still love your baked blueberry coconut oatmeal, Joshs chicken/rice/asparagus dinner to name a few. Could you please post more recipes that one who eats clean/Paleo could enjoy!?❤️
Such a creative way to make toffee!
Toffee season!! My freezer never looked so happy. And I never had to test my control so much!
Do you use semisweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips? Thanks, can’t wait to try!
I have used both. Use your favorite kind of chocolate! Enjoy!
Loved this recipe, giving it to some family members to enjoy. The buttery flavor is delicious. A very easy and creative recipe! My chocolate would not harden even after several hours at room temp so had no choice but to put it in the refrigerator, but other than that, something we will make again and again! Yum!
Just wondering what to do with some leftover graham crackers!!! thank you
This is an annual favorite. Economical as well and easy. Around here we call it “Christmas Crack”! In part because you “crack” it and because it’s addictive. Can’t imagine not enjoying it!
I’ve been making and selling a version of this since 2009 called Sugah Bark. This is what I do differently: 1/4 cup each brown sugar and white sugar. Bake at 375 for 10-11 mins. I top mine with Merckens or Peters candy coating in whatever flavor chocolate – or even peanut butter coating and various toppings. Chill in the fridge for 2 hours then break into pieces. Stores great in the fridge or freezer as well as room temp. Oh…you don’t need to use a silpat if you give your baking pan a good spray with Pam or something else.
Try these flavor ideas or come up with your own: white butterfinger, dark sea salt toffee, milk oreo…peanut butter with chocolate drizzle and chopped peanuts. The versions are endless.
Soooo easy, my 5 year old loved helping make this! & instead of nuts on top, we crushed up some pretzels. A new family favorite added to our holiday traditions! Thanks!!
Oh.my. This is incredibly addictive!! Super easy to make too. I had to get it out of my house so I took some to work. People are mad at me because they can’t stop eating it either!!! Thanks for another great recipe, Maria!
I’ve never seen this made with graham crackers, what a great idea! I always use saltines, but I’m betting the graham crackers really give it a whole new dimension. And the almonds – never tried that either! Looking forward to giving this a try this weekend 🙂
Hi thank you for the recipe. I was wondering if we need to use a baking thermomiter
I never use one.
Love this thought! I would not have the capacity to quit chomping on these!!
Pleasantly finished with the regulated pictures! I realize that is not more often than not your thing so it was amusing to see this time. What’s more, this looks a great deal more to my taste than the saltine one individuals generally make.
I have an affection loathe association with toffee. Love since it’s the best stuff on earth. Abhor in light of the fact that each time I make it I wind up eating over a large portion of the container.
“Greate” ” Easy Graham Cracker Toffee” It tastes simply like hand crafted toffee, yet it is SO much simpler. You can throw together this delectable toffee in a matter of seconds, which makes it the ideal treat for the occasions. It is an anxiety free treat and everybody LOVES it
Would you be able to tell me the pan size you used? It looks squarish. Also if possible the sillpat size. Thank you very much! Love your recipes.
ANXIOUS TO TRY—SOUNDS DELICIOUS–THANKS
This so sweet two pea sand their pod. so I love that all types of peas…………!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you######@@@!!!%%%%%%%%%
I have made and sold a version of this for many years. I use the Bisco honey grahams because they are less expensive and work very well. I use quarter cup white and quarter cup brown sugar for one cup of unsalted butter, and bake for 10 minutes at 375. Instead of chocolate chips I strongly recommend candy coating is such as merckens, or even Wilton. The Number of flavor variations is staggering. My best sellers included milk chocolate with crushed Oreos on the top and a white chocolate drizzle, dark chocolate with toffee and sea salt, as well as white chocolate with cranberries and pistachios and day dark chocolate drizzle. It is a great recipe to have fun with,.
so yummy ! i would like it
I think I will try the gram cracker toffee! Let you know when I do!Sounds so good!
I’ve made this recipe many times and it’s always a hit! I didn’t have enough honey graham crackers left but I had a full box of cinnamon grahams. I used them for approx. 3/4 of the recipe and they were awesome everyone, including teens, loved them.
We have a big New Year’s Eve Party coming up…this will be perfect!
NIGHTMARE!!! So I thought I’d look for other recipes for this to see if I did something wrong or if other people made it differently. I noticed someone made theres without baking it. My butter/sugar mix got under the crackers (didn’t realize it wasn’t supposed to?) and I had a nightmare trying to peel it free from the wax paper!!! I ended up throwing away bits and pieces i gave up on and screwed up all the chocolate and peanut topping from melting in my hands while trying to peel away. This was my first time making it myself because I’ve had it before and loved it. But I clearly did something wrong. Any suggestions? 🙁
Hmmm, I have never had a problem and I always bake it. You need to so the sugary mixture will set up on the crackers. Did you boil it long enough?
I just came across your comment and the first problem I saw, was that you used Wax Paper. Don’t do that. You should have used Parchment Paper. And it never hurts to give it a quick spray over with a non-stick spray, such as Pam, or any store brand would work too. Second, don’t fret about any of the syrup going underneath the graham crackers. Third, if you have this problem, which you shouldn’t, you can freeze these then take them off the paper while frozen. They should release much easier. Hope these ideas help you out. Oh, and make sure you bake these. It’ll help with everything you need to accomplish. Take care and happy baking. Hope this works great for you this year as Christmas 2017 is just a few weeks away.
You can’t use wax paper. Only parchment or foil sprayed with nonstick spray will work.
I made these, but these seemed a bit soggy and not crispy enough?
I have been searching for this recipe for four years. I tasted these at a party, didn’t know who made them. I fell in love with it. Thank you, thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
These looks awesome!! Wondering…. Thinking about giving for gift, how long will these stay good?
You can keep in an airtight container for up to a week on the counter. You can even freeze the toffee for up to 1 month.
Have made and sold a version of this for years, under the brand name Sugah Bark. I do it a little differently – I use a 50/50 white sugar and brown sugar combo. For toppings, I use about 11 oz of Merckens Candy Coating (any flavor you can think of), or even Wilton Melts will do. Then top it with a wide variety of options. White coating w/butterfingers and dark drizzle; milk coating w/crushed oreos and white drizzle; dark w/sliced toasted almonds, cacao nibs and smoked sea salt; Mint coating w/crushed peppermint and white drizzle (or dark); Dark coating w/chopped Reese’s and chopped honey roasted peanuts…you get the idea. Go crazy!!!
It is a fun recipe!
I’ve tried making a really similar recipe (not yours, though), and while it tasted delicious, the toffee and the chocolate layer completely separated from the graham crackers. I still don’t know why. Any ideas? I’m wondering if I should’ve cut the dessert when it was warm, rather than chilled, to keep this from happening.
Made this for Christmas & everyone loved it. They were perfect. Next two times I made it the chocolate separated from the toffee. Help! What did I do wrong?
Soooo easy…Sooooo Delish…. incredibly easy to make. Great for the little kids to help. Thank You
Oh my goodness! These are delicious! I am not supposed to eat chocolate, so I used unsweetened carob chip. They don’t melt so good, but they are yummy just the same. So decadent!
BEST AND EASIEST RECIPE EVER. Seriously. So good. I make and keep in the freezer to munch over weeks
Do you just take it out to thaw? Do the graham crackers stay crunchy?
Wow these are so yummy!! I made them tonight and drizzled a little bit of white chocolate on top. My only question is how long will they keep and how should I store them? Thanks for all the great recipes! I’ll me making a ton of your things in the next few weeks and.
I like to store in a container in the fridge to make sure the chocolate doesn’t get melty. You can store on the counter, just keep in a cooler part of the house, not by a heat vent or super warm kitchen.
I just made the Easy Graham Cracker Toffee and am very disappointed in the results. I think boiling the sugar and butter mixture for 4 minutes is too long. It just didn’t look right when I poured it on top of the crackers and when it baked, it looked sugary crusted and seemed like the butter was separating as I could see oily droplets. I’ve sampled the toffee portion and it’s awful sugary, but hasn’t cooled completely. This was a failure and a waste of two sticks of butter and one and a half cups of chocolate chips. Not sure I would try again cooking it at 3 minutes instead of 4 minutes.
Bring to a boil and then SIMMER.
Loved this recipe it was so easy to use my family just loved the bars
Glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Thank you. Looks delicious gone to make it
It looks totally awesome!! Going to make them
How long will it stay fresh in air tight containers?
Why did my butter separate from the brown sugar while it was baking? I had a layer of butter on top. Still good, but I had to blot up the butter and it was rather grainy.
Took these to work and everyone loved them. I prefer to follow a recipe as written but I only had milk chocolate chips on hand. They melted quickly and tasted wonderful.
I thought I’d try this receipe using the Splenda brown sugar. Big Mistake! Don’t use.
The butter separates from the brown sugar what a mess.
Like they say, “Try, try, again’. So I did. The butter and regular brown sugar blended well.
Also, I added 1/2 cup more of nuts; making sure to cover all the graham crackers.
The cookie sheet is in the fridge, and can’t wait to taste!
Thanks for the easy and affordable toffee receipe!
What size pan?
Anyone know what size pan? what dimensions is large?
I loved this! I changed it up by mixing dark and semi-sweet chocolate chips and pistachios instead of almonds. One batch I even sprinkled the chocolate with some cayenne pepper to give it a little bit of a kick. This has been a huge hit with my friends and co-workers
I have cinnamon grahams…think it will taste okay?
Yes I make it a lot for party’s and Christmas everyone loves it easy and taste awesome good to give as gifts to very Yummy making it this week for my granddaughters Graudation Party . it will be a big hit.
Fabulous! I used gluten free graham crackers because I have a wheat allergy, and they turn out perfectly delicious!
Oh, good to know! Glad you liked the recipe!
I made this 2 days ago and my family loved it. I never made toffee before so I was very worried I would mess it up. I followed the recipe perfectly and the recipe turned out!!! Easier than I thought it would be. thanks for the recipe
I just wanted to say we’ve been making these for years and in my house they are known as “crack bark”. I add a few things to mine though. Depending on who I’m making it for and I have a version I taught my 10 year old niece to make since cooking the butter and sugar can be dangerous I made a cheat version for her. The cheat version for her is still to line the pan and then place the crackers but for the toffee part we get a bag of caramel bits and add 3 tbsp butter & 1/4 c heavy cream and keep heating in 30 second intervals until it’s completely melted & whisk it really well then pour it over the crackers (it should be pourable by then) I ladle it over each cracker to cover first then pour the rest. I bake it for 6-8 min watching for the thick darker look of toffee but not burnt.
I add the chocolate as directed but my niece loves to add coconut and toasted peanuts to hers. Sometimes we even add marshmallows and toast them under the broiler for a minute. I also make a white chocolate version with candied ginger and candied orange peel in the white chocolate with chopped toasted macadamia nuts. You can have a lot of fun with this. Once just because I had it on hand I added to my brown sugar butter 3 tbsp of caramel apple dip and let it cook in at the end of the sugar cooking process and that ended up being such a creamer toffee I’ve almost made it routine. We even make a different cookie bottom with the Graham crackers and pretzels! We use the food processor and grind up the Graham crackers and about a cup of broken pretzels (I use the thin sticks) to a fine mix then add 1/4 c butter and 2 rounded tbsp sugar blend well and press onto a parchment lined cookie sheet all the way to the edges. Bake at 350 for 5-7 min once you see it’s pulled back a little and it doesn’t look wet it’s ready to take out. Let it cool and harden a little while until it’s just warm to the touch before you pour the toffee over it. It’s so fun to share recipes and ideas because food I think is the music of love and laughter and you can reach even the hardest of hearts with food because food contains memories and to be able to bring back a happy memory for someone with something I’ve made & to see them cry means so much to me. I have a muscular degenerative disease with connective tissue disease so I’m losing abilities in my hands and need a double knee replacement. My hands are deteriorated so I’m losing abilities so I’m cooking as much as I can showing up with plates of food for friends…some blaming me for their holiday weight already though we haven’t even got to the good stuff yet! But I just wanted to say never give up and remember you can always keep trying recipes and get comfortable playing with flavors of your own, you’ll see you are creative and baking is so much easier when your not afraid to make a mistake…just try again and you’ll find your masterpieces.
Thanks for the tips!
Just made Toffee graham candy!
After 4 hours my graham crackers were not hard at all.
What did I do wrong
I have never seen graham cracker sheets. . We have graham crackers that are about 2 or 3,inches squares. How many would I need
Just add enough crackers to fill cookie sheet end to end.
Turned out horrible for me. The toffee never set! I’m guessing maybe I didn’t simmer it long enough?? My chocolate also became gritty when spread on top. I’ve made these a couple years ago with a different recipe, and they turned out great. Not sure what happened this time.
I made the toffee graham cracker recipe last night . I love toffee so decided to try it . I went home for lunch today to break it apart and taste it . It was sooo good but .. I do think next time I will either use less graham crackers or more brown/sugar mixture to make the toffee thicker . I looked at the picture of the receipt and had used the same number of crackers as the picture . It’s probabky supposed to be on the thinner side but I would like thicker toffee
Easy peasy, delicious! I add salt and used peanuts.
delicious and easy. Best of both worlds!
Making a second batch because I ate the first batch in 10 days myself. So addicting! I used pecans and dark chocolate chips and added about a half cup of caramel chips. Hopefully I can get it packaged in mason jars for gifts today before I start sampling.
READ IF YOU’RE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH SETTING! I’ve been making these with this recipe for several years and have never had a problem (didn’t get around to them last year). It’s always turned out well and a big hit during the holidays. Until this year. I swear it’s the Graham crackers. I’ve been saying for a while now that they (Honey Maid) just don’t seem to be what they I’ve were (thinner or “airier”?). Well, I followed the directions to a T as normal. What I got out of the oven was a soupy mess & I could tell something wasn’t right. The grahams were soggy & swimming in the toffee mix. I continued on, hoping for the best. What I got next was melted chocolate mixed with gritty sugar and a chewy, gritty, sugary, graham cracker crust that didn’t set properly. I wasn’t satisfied and couldn’t share this with family! So… I made another batch, this time I didn’t use all the toffee mix. I spread an appropriate layer (enough to evenly coat and be soaked up without saturing the crackers). I even made another 1/2 sheet with what crackers I had left. I got a much better spread on my chocolate (shiny & smooth) and a crunchy cracker bottom after it set. Conclusion? Use less toffee mix. I don’t blame the recipe, it used to work perfectly!
Simple ingredients and easy to make and maddeningly addictive, it’s got the perfect balance of sweet and salty!
I followed this recipe to a t but when you bite into the cracker the toffee part seems grainy what could be done to prevent this and I would appreciate a reply
Hi I was having the same issue and I found just cooking it on the stove for max 2 min worked best!
I made this recipe and people absolutely love it. I add 1/4 cup
Of toffee chips instead of pecans or any nuts. It’s scrumptious.
Unfortunately, I gained 5 pounds and am only going to make it during the holidays. It’s totally addictive.
Hi, I was do anxious to try this because it seemed so easy. I ran into a couple of problems though. The chocolate chips wouldn’t melt and it didn’t look as if there would be enough. I added some more chocolate and then put it under the broiler. I was fearful of scorching but the chips still didn’t really want to melt. As I spread the the chips it was picking up the butter sugar mixture. Has anyone else had this problem?
I made this according to directions. The chocolate chips (after melting and spreading) hardened in a “chunky” looking way- not smoothly. What did we do wrong? Caramel was crispy but something just didn’t seem right in the end.
My toffee (butter and brown sugar) was crystallized and tasted sugary. Did I over cook or under cook it? I boiled it for 2 minutes.
Yes I had the same problem.
My toffee didn’t harden, I’m not sure why?
These are amazing! It was a great idea. They were delicious, and a fun learning experience for baking. The easy graham cracker was amazing! Everything was just right.
Love this, but wishing I could keep the butter/brown sugar liquid from running underneath the crackers? Did yours do that?
Yes it’s suppose to.
Can this be made ahead and frozen? Thanks.
Yes!
I like this toffee recipe, I adjusted the cooking time with this recipe. I used my saltine toffee time for the butter and brown sugar as well as baking it in the Oven. Chocolate chips melted fine and spread evenly.
I’m using this treat in combination with my saltine toffee for gifts!!
what is your saltine toffee time ?
thanks
So disappointed. I used to make these but the baking time was 15 minutes. These came out grainy and did not harden. Waste of good ingredients.
i would just increase the time you simmer on the stove. Ive had that happen when the ingredients didn’t all melt on the stove before pouring them over the crackers.
Mine also. Think I should have timed 4 min once it started boiling. Maybe it even said that. And…duh, forgot to spray foil. We’ll see if it comes up. Think I prefer with a bit of choc and salt (like saltines) to balance out sweet.
What happens if I use salted butter?
Salted butter is fine, it will be a little more salty, but I don’t think you will notice a huge difference.
Hi. I tried to make the toffee with margarine. It’s not working! The margarine and brown sugar Don’t come together in the pot. Is it the marg?
Probably, I have never used margarine.
Will this stick yo the tin foil ? Will it stick to parchment paper?
Made it tonight. So simple and easy. This will be a holiday treat for many years to come.
I have not tried this but know it is amazing. I do have a question (stupid), I dont eat salteens so can Kebler Club (like Ritz) crackers b just as good?
You can use your favorite crackers.
The parchment paper absorbed in to toffee. Is that safe to eat?
Hmmm, I have never had that happen. can you peel it off? I wouldn’t eat the paper.
Hi! This graham cracker toffee is amazing!! Are you able to freeze it? Thanks!
Karen
Yes, it is a great treat to have in the freezer.
I made these last night and they turned out so good. I let them bake for nine minutes instead of eight which made them crispy. I’m so happy with this recipe. Thank you for sharing such a easy and tasty recipe.
You are welcome! Glad you liked the toffee.
This is an amazing recipe and I make it every year. It comes out perfect every time… until today. My chocolate chips were a couple of months past the due date but I decided to use them anyway. They didn’t melt. It is a grainy sludgy mess. So I am just commenting to warn anyone tempted to use those past due chips. Don’t do it!
Thanks for sharing!
I have always kept my chocolate chips in the freezer and then this won’t happen.
Who leaves chocolate chips around long enough to go two months past their “use by” date!?!?
Made these with brand new chocolate chips and they didn’t melt. Glad I tested just one chip in the corner. Still looks good and will taste awesome, just won’t look like the picture.
I just made this and let it cool overnight. I thought it would be more crunchy (hard like a candy), is that normal? Still tastes great but was expecting a bigger crunch.
Will cinnamon graham crackers work?
Sure, the toffee will have a hint of cinnamon but that sounds good to me!
Looks yummy and good
what size pan do you recommend? none of my pans accommodate 15 graham crackers either too big or too small
I use a half sheet pan.
If your pan is too big use aluminum foil to create the correct size. just bring the foil up a bit to create an edge.
Wondering how long to boil at 8000 ft
Delish! It does taste to me like a graham cracker with yummy topping (toffee/chocolate/nuts)…the butter/sugar mixture was fluffy after 4 minutes…I was expecting it to soak into the graham crackers more? (the areas that did get more soaked tasted more like toffee) My question: what is the consistency of the butter/sugar when applying it to graham cracker? (mine had to be spread). Thanks~!
If you use Ghirardelli chocolate chips, you will not have any problem melting them. If you use Nestle Toll House chips, you might encounter problems.
Excellent easy yummy!!!!!
Amazing! Loved this recipe. So easy to make and delicious. Question- what’s the best way to store these?
I have been making this recipe for years sometimes the bottom is full of caramel but, most of the time it isn’t ! I want to know why??? My family likes it all at the bottom as well..
Just made graham cracker chocolate toffee—— SUCCESS,! So good!!
I’ve been making and selling this for a decade but with a few changes: quarter cup white sugar and quarter cup brown sugar. Bring to a boil and then simmer for four minutes. Bake at 375 for 10 to 12 minutes. And have more fun than plain milk chocolate and almonds. Try white chocolate and chopped Butterfingers, dark chocolate with cranberries and dried cherries, milk chocolate with chopped Oreos… Combinations are endless.
These are delicious but my layers always separate, when you pick them up most of the graham cracker toffee part falls off… any ideas?
That happened to me until I stopped chilling the pan in the fridge. Martha Stewart has a similar recipe, but she recommends letting the finished dessert cool at room temperature. The fridge makes the chocolate become too brittle & more likely to separate from the graham crackers. Hope this helps!
.cooking time not long enough- didn’t reach hard crack. Gramm crackers mush- made before different recipe was great!
Such an easy recipe, but filled with yummieness. My boyfriend can’t get enough!
I followed your recipe but had to make a few ingredient changes due to my grandson’s allergies. Substituted vegan margarine for the butter and used allergy friendly chocolate. It turned out perfect and tastes fantastic.
Can you use salted butter??
Sure!
I altered the recipe ingredients a bit – used half butterscotch chips and half chocolate chips. Instead of nuts, I crushed pretzels and spread them on top of the melted chips. Great modification if there are nut allergies and I thought it tasted awesome!
Love this!
This is the best toffee me and my family has ever had!!! And it’s so so easy to make. Definitely going to make this every year!
So glad you love it!
Oh my my, I have made these several times,but yesterday I needed a sweet gift,no almonds so I used Heath Toffee bits,.what a hit! The same I use I your blondie recipe.
Love those too
This is a WINNER! I’ve made it several times. I’ve even given it as gifts. One person asked if I sold it (hmm…). After making it a couple times, I decided to kick it up a notch (since I’m in the Southwest) and I add a bunch of Slap Ya Mana Cajun Seasoning. This gives it some heat and saltiness too. It’s been a big hit!
How to store for a couple days?
Store in an airtight container on the counter. You can also keep in the fridge or freezer for longer!
How do I store the toffee?
You can store it in an airtight container on the counter, fridge, or it even freezes well.
I just made some with graham crackers and They came out so good
Thank you for the recipe
I have been making this recipe for years. Instead of chocolate chips I use the big milk chocolate bar from Trader Joe’s. I shave or chunk off small pieces and put it on the toffee. You can also use a little bit more to make the topping thicker. It tastes richer too.
Perfect! Thank you for sharing!
How long will this keep?
In an airtight container on the counter for about a week or in the fridge for 2 weeks. You can even freeze it for up to 3 months.
Absolutely fabulous recipe and so easy to make! I took a platter to my neighbors and they loved them as well! Follow the recipe exactly and your toffee bars will come out perfect! I used Imperial Margarine, which I use in cookies as well, and the recipe was amazing! There is no substitute for Imperial! It is the best for baking! Wonderful, easy recipe and it will go down as a favorite!
So glad you loved it!
would prefer cooking sugar and butter by temp instead of time, to much room for mistakes with timing only.
so easy and can add any toppings you like. coconut or sea salt are great options.
Yum!
