The recipe it self is great but the directions on how to make it not so great. Candy has a hardening point so you should really over bake this recipe otherwise you end up with sticky gooey sugar instead of the hard toffee that you were looking for.

Super easy and get rave reviews from everyone. People are surprised when I tell them the ingredients (crackers? really?)

Wow...these are amazing and so easy. I was nervous because i thought I had too much butter/sugar liquid but it turned out great. I was also concerned about my chocolate chips melting but I took the advice of others and just put the pan back in the oven for a few minutes and the chocolate spread easily. Also, don't lift the spatula while spreading the chocolate besause it does pull up the crackers. Great recipe. Thank you for all the tips written in from everyone. Michaela

SO SO YUMMY! These are super easy to make. I think it took me 20 mins start to finish and that included washing the pot! didn't change anything but only had dark chocolate chips on hand so used those...turned out great! I also only chilled mine for 2 hours in the fridge and they were hard enough to break apart and begin the eating frenzy!!! My hubby says they taste like Almond Roca and I think they taste like a Heath Bar. Easy to have all ingredients on hand which is nice. Will make again...and again.

Like Kim T. said, they are delicious, and they only lasted 4 nights! You can use club sports crackers.

Hmmm...8 hours? Mine are sitting in the freezer and they're half gone! There's nothing to say about this, it's perfect. Follow instructions, no need to change anything. I might clarify, wait until it's boiling to time the 3 minutes. I don't know what club crackers are, but with soda biscuits, these taste like a SKOR bar.

Yep- it's that yummy. And totally easy and fun to make. I only had semi sweet chips, and some whole wheat saltines. Still came out fantastic.

A co-worker/friend made this and it was absolutely delish! Everyone in the office raved over it. I decided to make it and give in a gift tin. Well, I went to the store without the recipe and forgot the milk chocolate chips, but luckily, had bought two bags of hershey kisses with almonds. I also didn't read the recipe re: the choc. chips (I know... DUMB!! and in a hurry!!) Since I had the kisses, I decided to melt the chips and kisses in a pan. It was time-consuming, but so far, it looks like it turned out ok... I really probably could have just put the kisses/chips over the toffee and let it melt and it would have been fine. I did mix in slivered almonds with the chocolate... I haven't tasted it yet, but will come back and let you know how it worked. Right now... it looks great!!

I made a tin of goodies for the holidays as gifts as this "cookie" was the favorite!!! You DEFINITELY need to use the foil - I even sprayed it with Pam to make sure that the "toffee" didn't stick at all. This is a GREAT recipe and is very esay to make!

These are amazing, so easy but fancy enough for giving out as gifts. For Christmas I like adding white chocolate chips instead of chocolate and dried cranberries instead of almonds, very festive...but don't make them because you will eat them all, highly sddictive

These were good but I found the toffee layer to be a little too thick. They tasted much better the next day. Also good with graham crackers.

The best! They really do make you popular. A little difficult to master at first, but by the second batch it all works out!

the name says it all! these are fantastic. they remind me of a heath bar. i love them with and without the crackers as a base. the club crackers were better than the saltines. just don't overbake because it tastes horrible when burnt. after breaking it in pieces, i froze it in sandwich size freezer bags and pull out a bag every so often. everyone always begs for the recipe so i have learned to carry recipe cards with me when i bring these to parties. thank you thank you thank you!

These were great. This is the second time I've made them, and they're just perfect. So nice to be able to pull all of the ingredients from my pantry and be done in 15 mins...

I decided to make these since I already had everything in the house. I thought they were ok, but my husband liked them. I used cashews for the nuts. I did find them a bit hard to break into pieces after they hardened in the fridge.
