Soda Cracker Cookies

Recipe View Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 15 x 10 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, ensuring the foil extends slightly over the edges for easy removal. Grease the foil generously with butter or cooking spray. Arrange the soda crackers in a single layer on the prepared pan, trimming as needed to fit. (5 minutes)

Recipe View In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the packed brown sugar and stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning. The caramel should be bubbling and slightly thickened. (8 minutes)

Recipe View Immediately pour the hot caramel mixture evenly over the soda crackers, ensuring every cracker is coated. (1 minute)

Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the caramel is bubbling and slightly darker in color. Watch carefully to prevent burning. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot caramel-covered crackers. Let the chocolate sit for 1 minute to soften. (1 minute)

Recipe View Gently spread the melted chocolate evenly over the surface of the caramel layer. Sprinkle the finely chopped walnuts evenly over the chocolate. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Allow the cookies to cool completely at room temperature. This may take at least 30 minutes. Once cooled, lift the foil from the pan using the overhanging edges. Cut the cookies into bars or squares using a sharp knife. (30 minutes)
