I appreciate how you say 1 and 1/2 sticks of butter for 3/4 cups. It's those little things that help!

[@deeann424]

I have made this. It very good. Used reg saltines and semi sweet chips to spread out after cooking. You really don't need the nuts and toffee chips. And you keep price down too. They tend to fall all over anyway. Let it sit over night and crack it up. It is delish...

[@karynsuepohlmeier2109]

So glad to hear I can leave the nuts out! I have tree allergies and am unable to eat nuts but it seems like everyone puts nuts in everything.

[@maryj2671]

if you refridge you can crack it sooner. it's good with just choc chips

[@debbieroland1677]

Add chopped pecans a little more chopped into the caramel mixture before pouring over crackers. It will stick better and pecans taste better too. I don't care too much for chocolate added anyway.

Looks wonderful! I know this is 2 years ago, but as a carmel maker myself, you do not need to stir on a rolling boil. Stir like that at the end is all you need. It will be fluffy! I promise.

Fr... 3 minutes, it seems like she was stirring that mixture for at least 30 minutes. I think Alexa fell asleep. Lol

[@elaineb1409]

Mine didn’t melt together for some reason I think I just didn’t spread it out enough but it taste delicious. I use the Ritz crackers and chocolate chips on top. I put Hershey’s with almonds. I broke that up and put it on top came out really delicious. Thank you for yourvideo very well done, merry Christmas and happy 2024

Yum! I make a similar version w/saltiness. My recipe uses whit sugar & a little more butter but, the brown sugar looks better & thicker. Love the heath bits. Sometimes I use dark chocolate & coconut. Love your saucepan too - the mixtures slides out so easily.

I just went to a party and someone brought the saltine version. I found this while looking for the recipe. This one does look so much better. I can't wait to make this. Thank you!!

I’ve made a version of this for YEARS. It’s originally called “mean sawg”. I do not have any idea why it was called that, but that was it’s name when I found the recipe on AOL in the 90’s lol. Anyway, the way the recipe was written was to use saltines, the butter/brown sugar mixture and topped with chocolate chips and crushed pecans. Let me tell you what!!! The salty sweetness has caused some friendly fire at our family’s Christmas “stingy Santa” games 😂😂😂. Of course I always had some made for each family to take home anyway…and everyone knew it…but they all wanted that extra batch for themselves. A girlfriend of mine also made it the way I do, but used Graham crackers. It was also very yummy, but I prefer the saltines for the salty “bite” to go with all that sweetness.

[@MissSusieQue1]

U made me laugh with your "stingy santa" story. Im thinking of making a few large pumpkin pies per usual..but will make many littleish pies for my family members to take home..instead of just making a bunch of big pies.

[@heryl6130]

I've only made it with saltines, but I'm going to try it using Ritz crackers. I'll top it with sea salt! Yum😊

Hi Stephanie. First time seeing your channel. This is the second time I’m seeing this Christmas Crack. Yours is by far much better. I’ve never had this candy/cookie before.

Then go to your notepad or whatever you use to write on on your computer and open a blank document. Place cursor there and click “Paste”, oh by the way both clicks here are right clicks on a computer, and on a phone just paste the copied recipe there. Of course be sure to note who’s recipe!

[@collef1136]

This is a regular at our Christmas. You can use regular saltines (unsalted) or the toll house crackers in the green box. Similar flavour as ritz but fit nicely as they are rectangle. Cover with 1/2 cup milk choc and 1/2 cup semi sweet chips then put in the oven for 1 min. Melts then spread and top with skor or heath crumbles. Pecans is lovely touch

[@jimmorrison4ever529]

I never make these and am not a fan of these recipes. They're a mess. I feel they can make a cookie plate look less appealing and there are many other cookie recipes out there that are better.

[@barbaraosterman2631]

Thanks for the great video! I’ve made a similar recipe before but I’m definitely going to try your version. One suggestion for you would be to use an “offset” spatula for spreading the hot ingredients onto the crackers. This will make the job much easier and with a less chance of burning yourself. You can buy them at any place that sells kitchen supplies.

[@adobeblue4360]

The silicone scraper you get at the dollar store works too.

[@jbinnie7]

I followed your directions and made these goodies. My teenage grandson wants the recipe now so I sent him the link (and warned him how dangerous the 'hot lava' is) . I know he'll succeed if he follows your step by step guide. Thanks for this tutorial. (And thanks for leaving in the part where you accidentally dropped the knife onto the mixture and burnt your fingers a bit reaching into the 'hot lava' to retrieve the knife. It's a good reminder to all of us just how dang hot that caramel sauce is!)
