How to Make Churro Crack

Churro toffee is easy to make, and even easier to eat! Make this for the holidays, a Cinco de Mayo celebration or anytime you’re craving the sweet and salty deliciousness! Here’s how everything comes together:

1. Prep: Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 10×15-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Add the Crackers: Place the saltine crackers evenly on the prepared pan. The crackers should be touching each other and placed in even rows.
3. Make the Toffee: In a saucepan over medium-high heat melt the butter and brown sugar. Whisk together and allow the mixture to boil for a few minutes.
4. Spread Toffee and Bake: Pour the brown sugar mixture over the crackers. Spread out the mixture and bake in the oven for 4 minutes.
5. Mix Sugar and Cinnamon: While the crackers are in the oven, stir the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
6. Add Chocolate Chips: Remove the pan from the oven and then immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. Allow the chocolate to sit and melt.
7. Sprinkle Cinnamon and Sugar: Spread the chocolate over the crackers using a knife or an offset spatula then sprinkle with the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
8. Allow to Harden: Allow the chocolate to harden before serving. Sometimes I place it in the fridge to speed up the process! Break the churro crack into pieces and serve.
