I have been making these bars for many years and they are always a big hit. The recipe that I use calls for 1 cup of brown sugar instead of 1/2 cup of white. People can't believe they are saltines. My sister has made them with peanut butter chips swirled into the chocolate. For a neater bar, score them before putting in the fridge. They will break apart in a more uniform way.

I just made this tonight and it was a big hit! It was very quick and easy. I followed the directions exactly and was done in 15 minutes. I used pecans and sprinkles for the toppings. I will be sure to do this recipe again.
