Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the saltine crackers in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  2. Melt 1 cup of unsalted butter and 1 cup of brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until it bubbles and turns golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and whisk in 1/2 cup of heavy cream and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the saltine crackers, covering them well.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the toffee is bubbly and golden around the edges.
  6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle a mixture of 1 tablespoon of cinnamon and 1/2 cup of powdered sugar over the warm bars. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
