I made this using the soda crackers however like it much better when I used graham wafers.

Easy to make and lasted 5 minutes on the table. Great for gifts in a nice box.

I love these bars - super easy to make. The sugar mixture can burn really quickly, so I turned the heat to medium-low during the 3 minute boil. In place of the walnuts, I topped with chopped toasted almonds, skor bits and fleur de sel. A definite keeper!

Really delicious and easy - but I had to double the butter and brown sugar as I found there was not enough mixture to cover the pan of crackers. I use chocolate chips and Christmas sprinkles on top instead of nuts.

one of my all time favorites.. however, as i like the salty/sweet.. all my crackers are salt side up same direction -- i double the butter and brown sugar and added 1 tsp vanilla.. find it difficult sharing ;0)..

Temp too high, or needs shorter time and should mention constant watching. I'm sure it's not my oven, fairly new gas range and I'm a constant baker. Burns at 5 or 6 minutes, 7 min far too long.

I found this recipe very quick and easy to make, great if you're looking for something and don't have a lot of time. I made a slight adjustment and increased the caramel mixture by 50% as i found that there was not enough to cover the crackers....otherwise I made the recipe as shown. My husband and kids loved it (even with the nuts). Found it to be the perfect mix of sweet and salty. I have now made this recipe numerous times and would recommend it to anyone!!

All the kids loved this bar, added extra chocolate chips and left out the nuts. Looking forward to the next time I make the bar, going to use white chocolat and add red (pink) food colour for a birthday party.
