I've tried it with saltines and graham crackers and definitely prefer the saltines--the grahams are just a little too sweet with the toffee where the blandness of the saltimes is perfect and the extra salt makes it really special. Now I have some leftover matzo crackers (leftover from Matzo Ball Soup--yum!) and can't wait to try the recipe a third way. This recipe is insanely good, and insanely easy as well.

I couldn't believe how delicious it was. I'm glad to have come across this recipe and especially pleased to have just read that Sarah uses graham crackers, how tasty I'll definitely give that variation a try!

This morning for some reason I was looking through a folder of my granny's recipes that we had copied from her computer after she died a few years ago. One of the recipes was titled "Warm Welcomes". Odd name and I couldn't recall seeing it before. When I opened it up I had to laugh because it was the Crack recipe! I can't say that I ever remember her making this, nor do I have any idea where that title came from. Now I'm thinking maybe this is a sign from the heavens that I must make this, like, now. :o) I’ve had this recipe saved ever since it was posted, but just have never got around to making it.

I also throw pecans on top with the chocolate ;) I have only ever made these with graham crackers and called them “easy grahams.” I also throw pecans on top with the chocolate ;)

We also made them with salty chopped peanuts (even better than almonds, IMO), dried cherries & apricots bits, toasted coconut flakes, dried banana slices broken up along with chopped up smaller pieces of mini-marshmallows. Yum! Try making these with chopped pretzel pieces instead of almonds for those with nut allergies.

Made them again this morning. Just reading over the comments - I think the graham cracker suggestion is intriguing. Will have to try that next time. Also with the matzoh and sea salt. This might sound totally disgusting, but I'm wondering if you could sprinkle with ground up potato chips instead of nuts. I swear, I'm not pregnant and subject to bizarre food cravings, honest.

So, I guess I was one of the few on the planet who had not had this. I had been craving a chocolate toffee cookie crunch bar that I used to have a recipe for. Found this. So much easier, and so much better. Absolutely amazing. My hubby is allergic to nuts, and I'm kicking myself for not making two batches, so I could have some with nuts! Just an excuse to make this again. Thanks so much! Oh my goodness! So, I guess I was one of the few on the planet who had not had this.
