Christina's Notes

  • Add Sprinkles: Fun and festive sprinkles are such a colorful way to make this crack candy.
  • Nuts: Switch out the pecans for walnuts or peanuts if you wish or leave them out if you are afraid of nut allergies.
  • Variation tip: Use different colored chocolate melts to drizzle on top for even more christmas color.
  • Alternate ingredient: Candies add a nice touch to this toffee crack. Try adding coated chocolate candies on top.
