Cracker Choc Brittle
Prep Time: 10 mins + chilling
Cook Time: 10 mins
Serves: 8 persons
Ingredients:
• 125g Woolworths traditional cracker squares
• 200g unsalted butter, chopped
• 1 cup dark brown sugar
• 200g Woolworths dark chocolate drops
• 1/2 tsp vegetable oil
• ⅔ cup pecans, toasted, coarsely chopped
Method:
1. Grease and line a 20x30cm (4cm deep) baking tray with baking paper, extending paper 3cm above edge of tray on all sides. Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Arrange crackers, in a single layer, across the base of the tray.
2. Place butter and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Heat, stirring frequently for 2 minutes, or until butter has melted and sugar has dissolved. Continue to cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes or until just beginning to bubble and thicken. Immediately pour mixture over crackers to cover. Bake for 5 minutes or until caramel is tacky. Set aside for 10 minutes to cool slightly.
3. Meanwhile, place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds with a metal spoon, or until melted. Stir in oil until glossy.
4. Pour chocolate over base and spread out evenly using a palette knife. Sprinkle over pecans and chill for 1 hour or until set. Cut into large shards. Serve.
