Yummy Peppermint Bark

INGREDIENTS  

• 2 sleeves saltine crackers
• 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 bag chocolate chips (try half semisweet and half dark chocolate)
• 12 miniature candy canes, roughly crushed

DIRECTIONS  

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. 
2. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Fill the baking sheet with Saltine crackers, salted side up. 
3. In a small saucepan, heat butter and sugar over medium-low heat, stirring often, until the butter melts. Continue heating and stirring with whisk until mixture becomes fluffy and bubbly. Remove from heat and add the vanilla, stirring to combine. Pour mixture evenly over Saltines; use a spatula to spread and smooth the surface. 
4. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until barely golden brown and bubbly. Remove from oven and immediately pour chocolate chips over the top. Allow the chocolate to melt for approximately five minutes, and then use a spatula to evenly smooth the chocolate. Sprinkle with crushed candy canes; refrigerate or freeze until hardened. Break into bite-sized pieces before serving.
