HOW TO MAKE CHRISTMAS CRACK SALTINES

The original Christmas Crack is made to be life a toffee. This one is a little different and reminds me of holiday Smores.

Here is what you will need to make these fun crackers:

  • saltine crackers
  • chocolate chips
  • mini marshmallows
  • holiday M&M candies
Ingredients needed to make the Christmas Cracker Saltines.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper. Top the parchment paper with a single layer of saltine crackers. Cover the entire baking sheet.

Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the saltine crackers and then add the mini marshmallows.

Top them off with red and green M&M candies.

Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the marshmallows begin to turn a light golden color.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the saltines to cool for a few minutes.

Break up the pieces and serve.
