Pine Bark

Here is another great Christmas candy recipe I discovered two years ago in a Paula Deen cookbook.  My husband could eat a batch of this alone!  Enjoy & share with your friends!

35 saltine crackers
1 c. butter
1 c. packed light brown sugar
1/2 tsp. almond extract
5 (4 oz.) milk chocolate bars, broken into pieces

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Line a jelly roll pan with tin foil. Lightly spray foil with a non-stick cooking spray.

Place saltine crackers, salty side up, in prepared pan. In a saucepan, boil butter and sugar for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in almond extract. Pour mixture over crackers and bake for 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from oven, top with candy bars, and spread evenly as chocolate begins to melt. Cool slightly and transfer onto waxed paper. Allow to cool completely.
