Some of you may know it as “Christmas Crack” because it is addicting. Consider yourself warned!

It’s super easy to make – you only need a handful of ingredients! Be a rockstar at the office party with this treat.

The saltine toffee is one I have made at this time of the year before. Others love it.
YUM! I'm pretty sure I have everything for these except for the saltine crackers, which means I've got a store run to take care of. Although I don't usually pair sweet and sweet, I think I'd have to cheat and have these with some hot chocolate 🙂 Thanks for sharing the recipe! Pinned!

This stuff is so flippin' good….I can't believe I've never made it! That needs to change! Thanks for the recipe, my friend 🙂
Can u use normal butter?
Yes!
Do you use unsalted or salted butter?
Either one will work.
Jamie – could you use a different crust, i.e, graham wafer?
Graham crackers can be used in place of the saltine crackers.
