It’s a knockout combo of sweet and salty that will have your taste buds doing a happy dance. Plus, it only takes 15 minutes to make from start to finish and only requires six ingredients.

Must-Have Ingredients

To create this mouthwatering dessert, you’ll need the following:

  • Saltine crackers for the crunchy base
  • Butter and brown sugar to make the rich toffee topping
  • White chocolate chips for a creamy layer of sweetness
  • A mix of granulated sugar and cinnamon for the authentic churro topping

Let’s Get Cooking

Here’s a quick rundown of the steps:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the saltine crackers on the sheet, keeping them touch-tight in even rows.
  3. Melt the butter and brown sugar in a saucepan, let it boil for a bit, then pour it over the crackers.
  4. Bake the cracker-toffee combo for 4 minutes. While that’s happening, mix your sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
  5. Once out of the oven, sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top, let them melt, then spread them over the crackers.
  6. Dust the top with the cinnamon-sugar mix and let the chocolate harden before serving. You can speed up the hardening process by popping it in the fridge.

Handy Hints

A few tips to make your Churro Crack making experience even smoother:

  • Use parchment paper or aluminum foil on your baking sheet for easy clean-up.
  • If the chocolate chips aren’t melting fast enough, return the pan to the oven for a few minutes. Just be careful not to overheat them!
  • Spread the melted chocolate gently to avoid disturbing the cracker arrangement.
  • To fast track the hardening process, you can place the pan in the fridge before cutting and serving.

Storing Your Sweet Treats

Churro Crack can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 4 to 5 days. If it’s warm and the chocolate starts to melt, pop it in the fridge. Refrigerated, it will stay fresh for about 2 weeks. If you want to freeze it, separate layers with parchment paper to avoid sticking, and it will keep for up to a month.
