Makes a LOT-non-stick spray
– 15 graham crackers
– 2 ounces LAY’S® Wavy Original Potato Chips, broken into bite-size pieces
– 1 ½ cups salted peanuts, roughly chopped
– 3 sticks unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
– ¾ cup sugar
– ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips or chopped semisweet chocolate
– flakey sea salt, optional (Malden recommended)
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Line a rimmed baking sheet (standard half sheet, 13×18 inches) with aluminum foil and lightly coat with non-stick spray. Arrange graham crackers in a single layer and sprinkle evenly with chips and peanuts.
3. Combine butter, sugar and cinnamon in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
4. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until golden brown and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Pour toffee mixture evenly over chips and peanuts.
5.Transfer baking sheet to oven and bake until toffee is bubbling and a little bit darker, about 15-20 minutes. Be sure to check on yours after 15 minutes or so since all ovens vary.
6. Sprinkle warm graham crackers with chocolate chips and flakey salt (if using). Give the chocolate three minutes to melt.
7. Let cool completely (you can stick them in the refrigerator to make this happen faster) before breaking into squares.
