My gentile friends beg me to make it year round but I save it for Passover so it's an extra special treat! I tried sprinkling chopped peanuts on top the chocolate (after I spread it, before putting in fridge). It was good, but didn't add as much of a punch as I thought it would. So I'm sticking to the original for now... so far this passover I've made 3 batches and will probably make 2 more so I can share with some friends! Thank you!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('2516','Valerie'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> I’m so glad I happened upon this recipe!

Such a good recipe for Passover. Please visit at www.betterbaking.com and check it out.

Twice it has come out perfect. Twice the butter and sugar haven't combined properly, resulting in a melted, sugary mass with a layer of melted butter--greasy and not right. (Once it burned and boiled over--it was like the movie The Blob--yikes!) I don't know what made the times it worked and the times it didn't different. I used unsalted butter, dark brown sugar, a non-stick saucepan over medium heat. I put the sugar and butter in at the same time. Any ideas about what I'm doing wrong? Oh, and by the way, when I've gotten in right, the brittle is fabulous. When I've gotten it sort of wrong (though not burned), it's still pretty good. Thanks.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('59','Heidi'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> I’m not an experienced candy maker, and I’ve had a hard time with the brown sugar-butter melting.

I add pecans to the butter sugar mix for a great treat.Almonds make it like almond Roca...can do this with or without the chocholate. Walnuts are oh so good as well.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('58','Sue Fluhr'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> I add variety by adding nuts!!!

You specified a "cookie sheet". The syrup spilled over the sheet and fire resulted. I later revisited your recipe and the attached photographs. You clearly used a cookie pan (with a lip). Next time please take the time to be specific and accurate.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('56','Nathalie'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> I followed your recipe and it resulted in an oven fire.

This is exactly like Saltine Candy except it uses butter. Insanely good. You should try this with salted margarine for a treat - the brown sugar/salt combination makes it taste like toffee. Really, I don’t know why I bother baking anything else for parties.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('55','deb'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> So funny.
