Re: anyone have a great candy or bar/bark recipe

I've made this one a bunch of times...LOVE IT.

Ingredients
Saltines (unsalted tops)
1 cup butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 ½ tsp. Vanilla
8 oz. Chocolate chips (i use the whole bag)
8 oz. Toasted pecans, coarsely chopped

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with Pam and line it with parchment or wax paper. Line parchment paper covered cookie sheet with saltine crackers leaving little or no spaces (you may have to break crackers in order for them to fit). Don’t go crazy if the edges are uneven, it will all work out in the end.

Melt 1 cup butter and 1 cup light brown sugar in saucepan. Once they are melted together, simmer for 3 minutes. Take butter/sugar mixture off of heat and stir in 1 ½ tsp. vanilla (careful, it will sputter a little).

Pour mixture over crackers and spread so all crackers are covered. You may want to drizzle the mixture back and forth over crackers so you don’t have to spread so much.

Bake in oven for 5 minutes. Remove pan from oven and rearrange crackers so they are even (they will move a little while they baked). Sprinkle chocolate chips over crackers and let sit for a couple of minutes until chips have melted. Spread out chocolate over crackers and sprinkle with pecans. Put in freezer or refrigerator to cool. Once cool lift parchment paper and crack cookies like peanut brittle. Enjoy!
