If you get toffee cravings every so often like I do, these easy and irresistible Chocolate Drizzled Toffee Squares might just be your next fix. Only five ingredients probably already in your pantry. You’ll need graham crackers, butter, brown sugar, walnuts and chocolate chips. That’s all.
It’s school vacation around here in New Hampshire this week, so it’s the perfect time for baking with the kids! There are a couple easy steps they can do to help in this recipe: laying out the graham crackers on the baking sheet and sprinkling the walnuts.
My kids tell me they don’t like nuts. (Whaatttt???) But no one seemed to notice the walnuts as these Chocolate Drizzled Toffee Squares disappeared like lightning at my house.
As most of you know, I really love baking. I was thumbing through my recipe cards last week and came across a simple Toffee Squares recipes I hadn’t made in decades. So I made them in about ten minutes, then went a step further. Chocolate. Yup. I added a drizzle of melted chocolate. You can’t go wrong with chocolate my friends. And voila: Chocolate Drizzled Toffee Squares!
People: these are incredibly addictive and seriously one of the easiest bars you’ll ever make. Better dust off your super hero cape, because you’ll be needing it stat after making these.
Bring butter and brown sugar to a boil on the stovetop. Pour the hot, bubbly mixture over graham crackers squares you’ve already placed on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarsely broken walnuts and bake for ten minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 3-5 minutes. Then break apart into squares while still warm.
Use a small spoon to drizzle with melted chocolate! These treats are great to share. (Or not.)

And with this “You can’t go wrong with chocolate my friends” I know we are sisters from another mother…and father!!! Gosh – everything is better with chocolate but that was one heck of an awesome and easy toffee recipe to begin with! Funny thing about kids though, they think they don’t like something – then they eat it and it’s a whole other story – my daughter used to be that way about beets – now she LURRRVES beet everything! 🙂
Happy Thursday my friend – hope your week has been wonderful! I have some serious catching up to do with your posts…

These toffee squares look seriously delicious, Allie!! LOVE how easy they are! Obviously I am going to have to leave off the chocolate drizzle (for my half at least), but I KNOW they are going to be amazing regardless! Cheers, sweets! XO
