Ingredients

  • 24 saltine crackers
  • 1 stick of salted butter
  • 1/2 cup of packed brown sugar
  • 2/3 tablespoons of vanilla
  • 1/2 cup of chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup of red, white, and blue sprinkles

Instructions

  • First, line a baking sheet with tin foil. This will help keep the mess at bay and will make for a speedy cleanup. Then, heat the oven to 335 degrees.
  • Lay out the 24 gluten free crackers on the pan – I used a small standard baking sheet.
  • Next, melt the butter in a pan on low and once fully melted add the vanilla and brown sugar, then whisk until well combined. Bring to a bubble for about 3-4 minutes and then pour over the crackers and slip into the oven for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Once the pan comes out of the oven, cover with chocolate chips and let it sit for 3-4 minutes (allowing the chips to melt), then spread and top with the sprinkles. Chill for an hour, crack and eat up.
