Ingredients

  • 15 to 18 honey graham cracker sheets (2 ½ x 5 inches each)
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, roughly cut into cubes
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (small chips)
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • Flaky sea salt for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large sheet pan with a Silpat baking mat or with parchment paper. Do not use aluminum foil or the caramel will stick.
  • Arrange the graham crackers in a single flat layer over the prepared sheet pan. If they are not on a flat layer, the toffee will pool in the center while baking.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt and melt everything TOGETHER (if you melt the butter first and then add the sugar, they will separate). Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly. While still hot, pour mixture all over the graham crackers evenly. Bake for 8-9 minutes until bubbly.
  • Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips. Let them melt for a few minutes, and then spread with a spatula.
  • Sprinkle chopped almonds and sea salt. Let cool at room temperature and then place them in the fridge for 1 hour until hardened. After they have set and hardened, break them up into pieces. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Special equipment: large baking sheet, Silpat mat or parchment paper, spatula.
  • Use parchment paper or a Silpat mat: This will make it easy to remove the toffee bars. Don't use aluminum foil or the toffee will stick to it.
  • Arranging the graham cracker sheets: Arrange in a single flat layer to prevent the toffee from pooling around the center. If it pools in the center, simply re-spread it with a spatula.
  • Making the toffee: Add the butter and brown to a saucepan and melt them TOGETHER. If you melt the butter first and then add the sugar, they will separate.
  • Chocolate chips: Buy small chocolate chips so they melt faster.
  • Storage: Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
