Ingredients:  
35-40 saltine crackers
1 c. unsalted butter
1 c. brown sugar
8 oz. semi sweet chocolate chips
4.5 oz. peanut butter chips

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper (baking paper). Spray with non-stick spray. Arrange crackers in a single layer in rows on the tray. (you may need to break some crackers in half to fit the last column.) Be sure to fill all the space on the pan. Set aside.

In a medium sized saucepan, melt the butter on low heat. Add the brown sugar and increase heat to medium. Bring the toffee to a boil while continuously stirring, then allow to boil for 3 min. until it turns caramel in color. Pour the toffee over the crackers. Working quickly, spread the toffee evenly over the crackers with a spatula. Bake in hot oven for 4-5 minutes or until beginning to bubble.

Remove from the oven and top with chocolate chips. Return to oven for 2 minutes for the chocolate chips to melt), remove then spread the melted chocolate over the top with a clean spatula or knife. Add the peanut butter chips on the chocolate, let sit for 2 minutes to melt, and using the end of a fork, swirl the melted peanut butter chips through the chocolate. Cover with foil and refrigerate until set or freeze for 15 minutes until chilled. Peel the foil off the back of the crackers; break up into pieces and serve or store in airtight container.

Note: For Christmas, I left off the peanut butter chips and used white chocolate chips instead. Then I sprinkled crushed candy canes on top. Very festive and tasty!

You can also top this with M&Ms, nuts, whatever....

This is as addictive as crack! But not quite as harmful.
