Crunch Bars

This recipe came in one of my Kraft Food emails that I get. I remembered my mom making this when I was a kid so I thought I would give it a try. I also made this as gifts for McKenzie's teachers for Christmas - made for an easy gift.

Ingredients:
35 saltine cracker (I used as many as I could that would fill the pan)
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 pkg (8 squares) Baker's Semi-Sweet Chocolate, chopped
1 cup chopped Walnuts (toasted) (I prefer the finely chopped pecans instead)

Heat oven to 400*F

Place crackers in single layer in foil-lined 15x10x1 inch pan

Cook butter and sugar in saucepan on medium-high heat until butter is melted and mixture is well blended, stirring occasionally. Bring to boil; cook 3 min without stirring. Spread onto crackers.

Bake 5 to 7 min or until topping is golden brown. Immediately sprinkle with chocolate; let stand 5 min or until chocolate is softened. Spread chocolate over ingrdients in pan; sprinkle with nuts. Cool. Break into pieces.

Enjoy!!!
