How to Make Imitation Toffee
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with cooking spray.
- Arrange one layer of saltine crackers evenly across the prepared baking sheet.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup margarine (or oleo).
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a rolling boil. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- Carefully pour the boiling sugar mixture evenly over the layer of saltine crackers.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until the toffee is golden brown and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and immediately and evenly sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot toffee.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts work well) over the chocolate chips. Gently press the nuts into the chocolate using a spatula.
- Let the toffee cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.
- Once firm, break the toffee into pieces and enjoy!
