How to Make Sweet Cracker Crunch Bars

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, ensuring complete coverage to prevent sticking.
Arrange crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (113g) of butter over medium heat.
Add 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar and stir constantly until melted and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully pour the butter-brown sugar mixture evenly over the crackers.
Bake for 7-8 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. The edges should be lightly golden.
Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle 1 cup (170g) of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the warm crackers.
Let stand for 5 minutes, then spread the chocolate evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup (60g) chopped nuts (e.g., pecans, walnuts, or peanuts).
Let cool completely before breaking into bars.
