Hello CC members, a while back I found this recipe called chocolate crack made with graham cracker, chocolate and some other things. I can't seem to find it again, and I would love to have it again. Could somebody please point me in the right direction?

Is this it?

Chocolate Crack
What you need:
1 foil lined and PAM sprayed cookie sheet
1 box graham crackers or saltines
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) real butter (if you use unsalted like I do then add ½ tsp salt)
1 bag choco chips

Place crackers on a large cookie sheet, completely covering the bottom in a single layer. You can break up the crackers to fit. Pre-heat oven to 350. Put brown sugar and butter (and salt if needed) into a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Stir frequently with wooden spoon while butter is melting. Once it starts to boil stir constantly for 5 minutes. Immediately pour over graham crackers. Smooth out as evenly as possible to cover all of the crackers. Bake for 10 mins. Remove from oven and sprinkle the whole bag of choco chips over the hot crackers. Wait about 30 seconds for chips to melt then spread like icing over entire pan of crackers. Place immediately into fridge or freezer and let them cool till rock hard. Once completely cooled break the crackers up into roughly 2x2 jagged pieces. Try not to eat it all at one sitting. I dare you.

Since I posted this recipe I have had MORE people than I ever expected make this and pass it on..it's like that old Breck commercial..."and she told two people and then she told two people and so on and so on..." LOL!

And to think I got this recipe out of an obscure mystery book where the main character is a cookie maker! LOL! It's a family favorite now!

Keep passing it on and then it gets to live for another generation or two! I have a feeling it's been around for ages!

I'm so glad I saw this!! I've had a recipe since who knows when that I cut from
a magazine. It's ''The Governor's Inn Graham Squares''. Very similar to your
recipe but with pecans and no chocolate although that could be added very
easily. I'm sure it would be awesome with the chocolate too. If you're not a
chocolate lover ~ say what!!! ~ this is a great alternative. icon_smile.gif It's the basically
the same recipe. Enjoy!!! And I know I will now that I have it in sight again!!

My mom has always made this with saltine crackers and chopped pecans. We called it Brickle bars. We file it under "candy" in our family cookbook.

Yum!
