Chocolate Bark

aka CrackBark... because you can't stop after you start

1 sleeve saltine crackers
2 sticks butter
1 cup brown sugar
12 oz package milk chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Line a rimmed cookie sheet with foil, turning up edges.  Spray with Pam.  Line cookie sheet with saltines.

In a small pot melt butter and stir in brown sugar.  Bring to a boil while stirring.  Cook around 5 minutes until the sugar and butter are incorporated into each other and boiling.  Pour over saltines and spread with spatula.  Put in oven for 12 minutes.

Once out of oven pour package of chocolate chips over saltine mixture.  Let sit for 3-5 minutes or until melted.  Spread chocolate with spatula.  Pour pecans on top and lightly press into chocolate.

Put bark into refrigerator for at least 1 hour.  Break into small pieces.  I like to keep mine cool in the fridge.
