Toffee Bars from my 90 yr Aunt


Lookin' for a good recipe?  Start pickin' the brains of good cooks.  If you can sweet talk a good cook into giving you their advice and recipes, you are on your way to becoming a great cook too!  I sweet talked my 90 year old aunt into giving me this recipe. Toffee Bars 1 stick butter 1 stick margarine 1/2 cup sugar 40-50 graham cracker pieces (break each large graham into the 4 small pieces to get the 40-50 pieces) 1/2 to 3/4 cup finely chopped pecans 6 cubes (12 oz) almond bar, chocolate flavored coating Put crackers on cookie sheet as close as possible.  Melt and boil butter, margarine and sugar for exactly 3 minutes.  Pour over crackers, spread evenly.  Sprinkle nuts on top.  Bake at 325 degrees for 12 minutes.  Immediately remove crackers from cookie sheet with a spatula on to another cookie sheet.  Microwave chocolate for 1 minute on high and stir.  Microwave 1 minute more.  (No more than 2 minutes) With a teaspoon, drop melted chocolate on each cracker and smooth out.  Refrigerate until chocolate hardens.  Eat & enjoy! See... you are are on your way to becoming a great cook too!
