Ingredients

  • 35-40 saltine crackers (about 1 sleeve)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, plus a few pinches for topping
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans, regular or candied (optional)

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment and arrange the saltines in a single layer, touching, to cover the base.
  2. Melt the butter with the brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a rolling boil and boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
  3. Remove from the heat and stir in the pumpkin pie spice.
  4. Pour the toffee evenly over the crackers and spread it to the edges with a spatula.
  5. Bake for 5-6 minutes until the toffee is bubbling all over.
  6. Remove from the oven and scatter the white chocolate chips evenly over the top. Leave for 2-3 minutes to melt, then spread into an even layer.
  7. Sprinkle with the chopped pecans, if using, and a pinch or two of extra pumpkin pie spice.
  8. Chill in the freezer for about 15 minutes, or refrigerate for 30 minutes, until completely set, then break into pieces.
