This Graham Cracker Toffee is a delicious homemade treat featuring a buttery caramel layer atop a crunchy graham cracker base, finished with melted semi-sweet chocolate and crunchy toffee bits. Easy to prepare, it combines sweet and salty flavors with a satisfying texture, perfect for dessert or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • About 10 full-size honey graham crackers (or enough to cover a 9×13-inch pan; low-fat preferred)

Toffee Sauce

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

Topping

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup toffee bits

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch pan with aluminum foil and spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Arrange Graham Crackers: Place the graham crackers in a single, flat layer covering the entire pan. Break some crackers if necessary to fill gaps, but slight spaces are okay. Set aside.
  3. Make Toffee Sauce: In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan with high sides, combine unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and salt. Heat over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the butter has melted.
  4. Boil Sauce: Continue boiling the mixture at a medium-fast boil for about 4½ to 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning. As you near the 4-minute mark, the mixture should thicken to a medium-thick caramel sauce consistency. Remove from heat at about 4½ minutes when thickened.
  5. Pour Sauce Over Crackers: Evenly pour the hot toffee sauce over the arranged graham crackers in the pan.
  6. Bake Toffee Layer: Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 7 minutes, or until bubbling appears around the edges.
  7. Add Chocolate Chips: Remove the pan from the oven and evenly sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot toffee layer. Return to the oven and bake for about 2 minutes, until the chocolate chips are softened and glistening.
  8. Smooth Melted Chocolate: Use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate into an even and smooth layer over the toffee.
  9. Add Toffee Bits: Evenly sprinkle the toffee bits over the melted chocolate layer to add extra crunch and flavor.
  10. Cool and Set: Allow the toffee to cool at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours, or until the chocolate has completely set and the dessert is firm enough to slice.

Notes

  • You can use low-fat graham crackers for a slightly lighter version.
  • Do not skip stirring constantly during the boiling stage to avoid burning the caramel.
  • Ensure the toffee sauce is thickened properly before pouring to get the perfect texture.
  • Let the toffee cool completely before slicing to ensure clean, neat pieces.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
