Ombar Christmas Crack
Ingredients
- 220g vegan butter
- 220g light or dark brown sugar
- Roughly 40 salted crackers - Schar Gluten Free Cream Crackers work well
- 250g Ombar 72% Cacao (darker choc works better here, anything too sweet, paired with the toffee, might be a bit much!)
- Any additional toppings e.g. pistachios, pecans, candied ginger, glacier cherries, etc. or candy canes for a fun festive look!
Method
-
1.
Preheat oven to 180c. Line a large baking tray with baking paper and lightly spray with oil. Spread the crackers out on the baking paper in a single layer and set aside.
-
2.
In a small saucepan, melt the vegan butter and brown sugar over medium-high heat. Bring to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat and continue to boil for 5 minutes (set a timer), stirring occasionally. Once 5 mins is up, quickly pour over the crackers and spread to cover completely.
-
3.
Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. While it’s in the oven, chop your Ombar finely, and get your other toppings ready too.
-
4.
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate over the hot toffee. Leave to stand for 1-2 minutes until the chocolate is soft enough to spread evenly over the toffee.
-
5.
Sprinkle your additional toppings evenly over the melted chocolate – the more the merrier!
-
6.
Chill in the refrigerator for about 2 hours to harden. Once completely set, crack into chunks, share with friends, and enjoy!
