Why This Toffee is Best

I have a new obsession. Well, it’s not NEW, I have always been obsessed with homemade candy. But right now I LOVE cracker toffee.

Have you tried it yet? Based off my original Saltine Toffee Recipe, today’s version has Chocolate and Coconut!

It’s no secret that I love Samoa Girl Scout Cookies. I even created a samoa truffle recipe that tastes JUST like the cookie…but in candy form. This candy recipe today is inspired by those cookies.

You’ve got caramel (toffee). Chocolate. Coconut. Crispy cookie (toffee). And I threw in some pecans, because, why not?

  • Just 6 ingredients!
  • Layers and layers of fun flavors
  • Addictively delicious!

Love Girl Scout cookies? Our Tagalong cookies taste better than the original. And our thin mint puppy chow has that same minty flavor, no cookies needed.

Ingredient Notes

  • Graham Crackers – Please make sure they are fresh. Stale graham crackers won’t result in the same texture!
  • Butter – I always use unsalted butter for my baking, but salted will work just fine in this recipe too.
  • Sugar – Regular white granulated sugar works great for today’s recipe. It gets boiled with the butter to pour over the crackers.
  • Pecans – No need to toast the pecans, since we’ll be putting them on top and baking them with the cracker toffee. Substitute walnuts if you prefer.
  • Coconut – Use sweetened shredded coconut that you can find in a bag in the baking aisle of the grocery store.
  • Chocolate Chips – Use a good quality brand, such as Ghiradelli. You want your toffee to TASTE good. Also, I use semisweet, but you could substitute dark chocolate or milk chocolate if you prefer.

Easy Instructions

Step 1. Make the cracker layer. Lay graham crackers on a baking sheet. Melt the butter and sugar in a small pan until it begins to boil. Once it boils, pour it over the graham crackers on the pan.

Step 2. Add toppings. Sprinkle the pecans and shredded coconut generously over the crackers.

Step 3. Bake and transfer. Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F. The toffee will be bubbly and caramelized. Allow toffee to sit in the pan for about 10 minutes, to soak up all the caramel.

Using a large spatula, scoop big pieces onto a piece of parchment paper. It’s okay if they aren’t uniform pieces, you’re going to break them up into smaller sizes.

Step 4. Add chocolate. Melt the chocolate according to package directions and spread over toffee (the toffee can still be warm). Allow toffee to cool and harden and chocolate to set (about 30 minutes). ENJOY!

Tips and Tricks

  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. It’s not a must, but it makes the toffee easier to remove from the pan and makes clean up a breeze!
  • Be sure to bring your butter and sugar mixture to a FULL rolling boil before removing from the heat and pouring over the graham crackers.
  • Allow crackers to cool completely before breaking into pieces so they harden up all the way.
