Ingredients
  

  • 37 saltines cracker squares
  • 1 cup butter cubed
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ounce white baking chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon shortening

Directions
 

  1. Lay the crackers in a single layer in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan.
  2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter with the sugar and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer uncovered for 5-6 minutes, until thickened and the sugar has dissolved. Pour over the crackers.

  4. In the microwave, melt the white chocolate and shortening, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over the toffee.
  5. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes, until set. Break into pieces.
