How to Make Kit Kat Bars

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Line the bottom of the pan with a single layer of 8 Christie Toppables buttery crackers, arranging them to cover the bottom evenly.
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, graham cracker crumbs, and evaporated milk.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
Pour half of the filling evenly over the first layer of crackers.
Arrange a second layer of 8 Christie Toppables buttery crackers on top of the filling, pressing down gently to adhere.
Pour the remaining filling over the second layer of crackers, spreading it evenly.
Top with a third layer of 8 Christie Toppables buttery crackers, pressing lightly.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and peanut butter together. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the top layer of crackers.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is completely set.
Cut into bars and serve. Enjoy!
