Pumpkin pie spice crack is a crisp, buttery toffee layered with chocolate and warm pumpkin spice. It’s an easy fall treat that’s perfect for sharing.
Main ingredient: crackers
Pairs well with: coleslaw, cornbread, potato salad, baked beans, coffee
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
- 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.
- 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.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the pumpkin pie spice.
- Pour the toffee evenly over the crackers and spread it to the edges with a spatula.
- Bake for 5-6 minutes until the toffee is bubbling all over.
- 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.
- Sprinkle with the chopped pecans, if using, and a pinch or two of extra pumpkin pie spice.
- Chill in the freezer for about 15 minutes, or refrigerate for 30 minutes, until completely set, then break into pieces.
