AUNT ANA: DAY 3 OF 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS COOKIES
So this cookie goes by many names but in my family we call it "Christmas Crack" because you can’t just have 1 piece and you always keep coming back for more! I’ve made 2 batches in the last 3 days to bring into the office and it’s all pretty much gone!!!
I also love this recipe because it is SO easy to make for any occasion! And I recommend doubling the recipe because 1 won’t be around for long! ;-)
Christmas Crack Cookie Bites
Ingredients:
- saltine crackers
- 1 stick of butter
- 1 cup light or dark brown sugar (I used light)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 bag of milk chocolate chips nuts, sprinkles, or M&M's (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Line cookie sheet with aluminum foil, and spray generously with cooking spray.
Cover cookie sheet with one layer of saltine crackers.
Bring butter and brown sugar to a boil, stirring continuously for 2 to 3 minutes.
Remove from heat; add one teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
Pour mixture over crackers, and then bake for 6 minutes.
Remove from oven; pour a bag of milk chocolate chips on top of crackers.
Allow to soften for a minute or two, then spread chocolate evenly on top of crackers. (Optional - add nuts, sprinkles, or M & M's on top of melted chocolate)
Cool, then break up into bite size pieces and ENJOY!
