Christmas Crack (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - About 40 saltine crackers (1 sleeve).
02 - 1 cup of packed light brown sugar.
03 - 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
04 - 1 cup of chopped red and green M&Ms.
05 - 1 cup of salted butter.

# Instructions:

01 - Set your oven to 400°F. Cover a baking tray with foil or parchment paper, then spray lightly with nonstick spray.
02 - Lay the saltine crackers flat in one layer across the baking tray.
03 - Melt the butter and brown sugar together in a small pan over medium heat. Stir until bubbly, then let it gently simmer for 3-4 minutes.
04 - Carefully drizzle the hot butter-sugar mix over the crackers, spreading it out evenly.
05 - Place in the oven and bake for 5–6 minutes, until the mixture is bubbling.
06 - Take the tray out of the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. Let them sit for roughly 5 minutes to soften.
07 - Use a spatula to smooth out the melted chocolate over the surface of the crackers.
08 - Scatter the chopped red and green M&Ms on top of the melted chocolate evenly.
09 - Pop the tray into the fridge for a few hours or into the freezer for about 30 minutes until everything hardens.
10 - Once firm, take it out and break it into smaller pieces with your hands.

# Notes:

01 - Stick it in the fridge or freezer until the chocolate is completely firm before breaking it apart.
