Chocolate Saltine Toffee is actually so good…it really fulfills that basic chocolate craving we all get from time to time (some of us get it more than others).
Back before i was a bonafide chef (just kidding)…I would literally keep NOTHING in my pantry. When friends and family would come to visit, they were lucky if I’d go stock up on the essentials, like chips and soft batch cookies.
Oh, and frozen pizza of course. (Mama Lucia anyone?!) But two things I would always have in stock were saltines and chocolate chips.
Both are wonderful snacks for poor and lazy anti-cooks. Saltines are also awesome if you ever need to entertain guests by seeing who can eat 6 saltines in one minute! (spoiler alert…YOU CAN’T. Scout even tried) ANYWAY…point being that everyone has these ingredients on hand already. Even people like me!

Becky’s tips
- Be sure to use a RIMMED baking sheet to prevent molten sugar from spilling all over your oven.
- The Saltines add plenty of salt, so I do not recommend using salted butter.
- For a lighter flavor, you can use granulated sugar instead of brown sugar.
- Feel free to mix up the chocolate chips. Use any combination of your favorites, such as dark, milk, or white chocolate chips. You could even use butterscotch or cinnamon baking chips.
Nutrition Information
A most helpful hint would be to tell us the size of rimmed sheet pan fits this sleeve of crackers. Bet I’m not the only one wondering, and I’m sure everybody has more than one sheet pan.
A standard baking sheet is 13″x18″. Hope this helps!
thank you, Becky, for your fast reply!
You’re welcome! Happy baking!
Hi Becky! It has been many, many years since I have made these! Sooo good! But I do better with a candy thermometer! At what temperature do I bring the mixture to a boil?
Thanks!

I hosted a cookie exchange one year for Christmas and our oldest guest (in her 80s) brought a batch of these and they were voted the “best cookie”, despite the fact that they’re not actually a cookie. Regardless, they’re addictive!!!
