My family likes it with graham crackers, milk chocolate and sprinkled sea salt. I love it both ways. Absolutely addictive!!!

*WARNING* This cracker candy is ADDICTIVE! I thought this would make wonderful Mother’s Day gifts but it never left my kitchen! I followed the recipe exactly and found that the chocolate chips need a few more minutes to melt before they’re spreadable and I ended up having to put it in the freezer for about an hour before they were firm enough to break up.

This. This is everything you want. Salty, crunchy, sweet, delicious. I used 1c regular sugar with 1/8c molasses. Left out about 1/3c chocolate chips in the bag. I couldn’t even wait to try it before it set. You will not regret this indulgence 😍
