Yield enough for 10 people

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup softened butter
1 cup Splenda Brown Sugar Blend
1 stack No Salt soda crackers
6 ounces chocolate chips
1 cup almonds, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the butter and Splenda to a gentle boil. Allow mixture to simmer for 3 minutes, stirring often. While mixture is simmering, place a single layer of crackers on a 9" by 13" baking pan. Pour hot syrup mixture over crackers. Bake until bubbles appear over the surface of the crackers. This should only be about 3 minutes. Remove pan from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over entire surface. As they soften spread them evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle almonds over top. When cooled break apart to enjoy.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the baking process.
  • Choose the Right Crackers: The type of cracker you use will affect the flavor and texture of your cracker brittle. Salted crackers will produce a savory brittle, while unsalted crackers will result in a sweeter brittle.
  • Use a Sharp Knife: When cutting the crackers, use a sharp knife to ensure clean, even cuts. This will help the crackers bake evenly.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cracker brittle tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the Cracker Brittle Until Golden Brown: The cracker brittle is done baking when it is golden brown and bubbly. Keep a close eye on the brittle so that it doesn't overcook.
  • Let the Cracker Brittle Cool Completely: Before breaking the cracker brittle into pieces, let it cool completely. This will help it to harden and become crisp.
