Cracker Candy

Recipe - Kids 009
Cracker Candy

Submitted by : Barbra McElwayne
Location: Kimberling City, Missouri

pound (one sleeve) Saltine crackers
1 cup butter (margarine won't work)
1 cup sugar
1 large bag of chocolate chips, optional
Chopped Almonds, optional
Line cookie sheet with foil and butter well. Break the crackers and try to layer them evenly on the foil.If you are going to use the Almonds, I like to brown them in the butter. Boil the butter and sugar for exactly 3 minutes. Pour over the cracker and bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the chocolate chips. As the chips melt, spread them evenly over the mixture. You can then sprinkle with the almonds if you wish. When cool, break into pieces.

~ Note ~
I know that this recipe sounds so gross. I had it for years before I tried it, and I still can not remember what possessed me to try it, but this is a family favorite. I have passed it along to friends who have been so creative with it, one person use's garlic in the recipe. My favorite is just plain, no nuts or chocolate. But be creative and have fun with it.
