Ingredients
Scale
42 Club Crackers
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lightly grease the foil to prevent sticking.
- Arrange the crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they fit snugly without overlapping for an even toffee coating.
- Make the toffee: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the sugar and stir continuously until it begins to boil. Keep boiling for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
- Take the pan off the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract. Be aware that the mixture may foam or bubble slightly during this step.
- Pour the toffee mixture evenly over the arranged crackers, spreading it gently with a spatula if necessary to coat all the crackers.
- Sprinkle the chopped pecans generously over the toffee layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the toffee is bubbly and the edges are golden brown.
- Cool completely before breaking or cutting the crackers apart. Store in an airtight container.
