Ingredients
Scale
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
3 cups graham cracker squares, broken into pieces
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the graham cracker pieces in a single layer to cover the sheet surface.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Let the mixture boil for 3 to 5 minutes without stirring until it turns a rich caramel color.
Immediately pour the hot toffee evenly over the graham crackers. Spread it if needed to cover all pieces.
Bake the sheet for 8 to 10 minutes, until the toffee is bubbly and set.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee.
Let the chocolate sit for 2 to 3 minutes to melt. Spread the melted chocolate evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the melted chocolate if you are using them.
Allow the toffee to cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.
Break the cooled toffee into pieces and serve.
Notes
Use high-quality butter and chocolate for the best flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container to keep the toffee crisp.
This recipe is great for gifting during the holidays.
