Toffee Bars
By: Sandra Lee Smith, California EASY TOFFEE CRACKER BARS Easy bars with graham crackers, pecans, and other ingredients. Technically speaking, I wouldn’t call this a cookie – it’s more of a confection. But these are wildly popular with everyone. Ingredients: 20 graham crackers (individual squares), regular or chocolate 1 1/2 sticks butter (6 ounces) 3/4 cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup chopped pecansPreparation: Line a jelly roll pan (10×15-inch) with foil; arrange graham crackers in the pan in a single layer. Combine butter and sugar in a heavy medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Boil for 2 minutes; stir in vanilla and chopped pecans. Pour the hot mixture over crackers and spread evenly. Bake 10 minutes at 350°. Remove at once from pan to flat surface to cool. When cool, break into smaller pieces.
