Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • Thin buttery crackers (such as saltine crackers)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Baking Sheet: Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, then arrange the crackers in a single, even layer to ensure each piece is evenly coated.
  2. Make the Cinnamon Sugar Butter Mixture: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth, bubbling, and the sugar is fully dissolved, creating a perfect glaze.
  3. Coat the Crackers: Carefully pour the hot butter and cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the crackers. Use a spatula to gently spread and cover every piece without breaking them.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture is bubbling and the crackers have turned a golden caramel color.
  5. Add the White Chocolate: Remove the tray from the oven and immediately sprinkle white chocolate chips over the hot candy. Let sit for 5 minutes to melt, then use an offset spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly across the surface.
  6. Cool and Break Apart: Allow the churro crack to cool completely at room temperature or chill in the fridge until the white chocolate is set and the candy has hardened. Once firm, break into bite-sized pieces for serving.

Notes

  • Use saltine crackers for the traditional salty crunch that balances the sweetness.
  • Watch the oven closely to avoid burning; a few extra minutes can cause bitterness.
  • Spread white chocolate promptly after melting to achieve a smooth finish.
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  • Store churro crack in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain freshness and crunch for up to one week.
  • For dairy-free or vegan versions, substitute butter with coconut oil or plant-based butter and use dairy-free or vegan white chocolate chips.
