Deluxe Christmas Crack

My friend, Mike Sigrist, used to rave about Christmas Crack.

Time to bring it to the next level.  The DELUXE level.

Ingredients 

What ever Christmas Crackers you have laying around

Graham crackers 

Saltenes

Ritz crackers

1 1/4 cup butter

1 1/4 cup brown sugar 

2 cups of milk chocolate chips

Celtic salt 

Stuff you will need 

Cookie sheet lined with parchment paper 

Cake Spatula 

Sauce pan 

High heat Spatula 

Zip lock bag or storage container 

Directions

In a nice military like order, create files of cookies.

Bust up the saltines and spread over the cookies, as some of the cookies may not be perfectly square.

In the sauce pan, add the butter and brown sugar.  Heat to medium.  Using your high heat spatula, keep stirring till bubbly and continue to cook for another 5 minutes.

Transfer your butter/sugar mix, and pour over the crackers.  Make sure the butter/sugar mixture covers all the crackers.

Oven to 350 F.  Bake for 5 minutes.

Pour the milk chocolate chips over the butter/sugar layer.

Put the pan, back in the oven for one minute, with the oven door left open a crack.

Using your long cake spatula, flatten out the melted milk chocolate chips. 

Sprinkle the celtic sea salt over the chocolate. 

Let this all harden on the counter for a few hours.

Remove the Deluxe Christmas Crack from the parchment paper.  Crack up the Crack.  This is why they call it Christmas Crack.

Store in a Zip Lock bag in the freezer if you are making this ahead of time.  Otherwise keep your Deluxe Christmas Crack on the counter and watch it vanish.
