Today's recipe is a spin on the classic Saltine Toffee Recipe. This is a dessert that great to have on hand for summer entertaining, because it keeps really well and I recommend serving it straight out of the freezer. Cold chocolate on a hot summer day? Um, yes please!!
This recipe also makes for a great hostess gift-- simply wrap up a portion of the recipe in cellophane paper, tie with a pretty ribbon and add a thoughtful gift tag. Easy, quick and delicious, whats not to love about this perfectly balanced sweet and salty dessert?!?

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit
- Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil and spray the foil with a non-stick cooking spray (ex. Pam)
- Assemble a slightly overlapping layer of 34 Degree Natural Crisps on the bottom of the jelly roll pan and set aside
- In a small sauce pot, add butter and brown sugar on medium-high heat and stir contents intermittently using a high heat spatula
- Once the butter/sugar mixture (toffee) has melted together and comes to a rolling bubble, remove from heat and pour over crackers
- Use a spatula to smooth out toffee mixture evenly over crackers, then place in the oven for 5 minutes
- Once the toffee is done baking, begin to melt the chocolate in 30 second increments using a microwave safe bowl in the microwave
- Stir chocolate after every 30 seconds of cooking until completely melted (about a minute and 20 seconds)
- Pour melted chocolate over toffee crackers and spread evenly
- Sprinkle top of chocolate with Smoked Maldon Sea Salt and allow to cool for 30 minutes before moving to the freezer
- Once frozen break off rustic pieces (using your hands) and serve
