Easy Toffee (from Amber)

I love this recipe! It's going to be a Christmas-time staple for me because it's easy and delicious. I made a pan and had to give more than half away because it made so much.

ingredients:
1 stack of saltines
1 cup butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 bag (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
chopped nuts (optional) I prefer chopped almonds

Line a large cookie sheet with foil. Lay crackers on foil in solid cover, crackers touching. Boil butter and brown sugar for 3 minutes (start timer after it starts boiling), stirring constantly. Pour over crackers, spreading to cover them all. Bake at 400 for 5-7 minutes; do not allow sugar to burn. Remove from oven and allow to sit about 3 minutes. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over candy and spread with a spatula as chocolate begins to melt. Sprinkle on chopped nuts while chocolate is still wet. Refrigerate. Chocolate will harden in about 30 minutes to an hour and candy can be broken into pieces.
