While we all want to be Martha Stewart this holiday season there’s one more gift Santa hasn’t left in our stockings yet. The good news is that you can still enjoy making homemade treats with minimal mess and effort. All you need are four ingredients to transform pantry baking supplies into an addictively sweet holiday treat aptly named Christmas Cracker Candy.

Cook the butter and brown sugar until bubbly turning it into a candy "glue" that holds together a layer of saltine crackers underneath. You can get creative with the toffee and infuse it with instant espresso powder for a mocha Christmas candy or top it with dried pineapple and coconut flakes for a tropical Christmas candy (and perfect packaged in a mason jar or tin to send to loved ones near and far).
