Get ready for a new family favorite—like brittle, but better. Pack pieces of sweet-and-salty treasures in decorated cardboard gift tubes or recycled oatmeal containers wrapped with decorative paper (or use scraps of self-adhesive wallpaper). Trim with green pompom fringe. Make it fun by adding a bow made from newspaper. —Laura Cox, Brewster, Massachusetts

Fantastic recipe! I made it twice, the first time I used Ghirardelli semi sweet chocolate morsels and it came out perfect. The second time I used toll house semi sweet morsels and the chocolate totally seized and it didn't work at all.

I made 6 batches of this for a group of employees. I perfected it a bit as a went. It needs a little salt added to the butter/sugar mixture, and I generally don't salt many things. Also, It didn't need a full 8oz bag of toffee bits. If you are making mutiple patches, 2 pkgs will do 3 pans of bark. For the cooking portion, I felt it produced a better product when I boiled the butter sugar mixture for 3-4 minutes and then baked it for 10-12 minutes until it was golden and bubbly. It was a crispier product that broke into pieces much better than when I only baked it only 8-10. It was stickier and didn't break as nice. But the taste is excellent either way!

This was the grossest thing I ever made. A waste of good ingredients, time and money.

Substituted Pretzel Crisps for the saltines. What a hit - Everyone has asked for the recipe!

I made this along with my favorite truffles for Christmas gifts, and this was the thing I got the most compliments on. Everyone loved it. So did I, but as someone who occasionally takes a little too much pride in never making anything grainy, I thought this was a bit. I tried making it again, wondering if I should cook it longer and really make sure the sugar was dissolved, but the stuff becomes very thick and hard to cook for too long. Anyway, it didn't help with the graininess. Yet, it was only very slight and nobody else noticed it but me. In spite of that, I thought it was delicious and addicting, along with everyone else. I only used a half bag of Heath bits and that was plenty.
