Ingredients:
1 box of gluten free crackers (suggested: Glutino)
1 cup of unsalted butter
1 cup of brown sugar
1 bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips
Crushed peppermints [optional, but highly recommended for that extra burst of flavor!]
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a 15 x 10-inch rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange the gluten-free crackers side by side on the sheet until the entire pan is covered.
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it bubble away for 3 minutes.
Quickly pour the hot butter-sugar mixture evenly over the crackers. It may be a bit tricky to spread, so work swiftly before it begins to harden.
Bake the toffee-topped crackers for 7 minutes, allowing the mixture to caramelize and bubble.
Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let them melt for a moment, then spread the chocolate evenly over the crackers.
For that irresistible twist, sprinkle crushed peppermints over the chocolate-coated toffee.
Let the toffee cool and set at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about an hour.
Once chilled, break the toffee into small, bite-size pieces and prepare to indulge in a symphony of flavors!
From the satisfying crunch of the toffee to the smooth richness of the chocolate and the refreshing burst of peppermint, every bite is a celebration of deliciousness.
