Ingredients

  • 1 box mini peanut butter sandwich crackers , 8.8 ounce
  • 0.5 cups salted butter
  • 0.33 cups dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon , divided

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a large-rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Add crackers in one even layer.

  2. 2

    Add butter, 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons brown sugar, vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon to a saucepan over medium-high heat; cook, stirring often, until well combined and simmering, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Carefully pour butter mixture over the layer of crackers. Using a silicone spatula, toss crackers until well coated in butter mixture.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and golden brown, about 10 minutes, flipping and tossing crackers halfway through cooking time.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, stir granulated sugar and remaining 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon together in a small bowl.

  6. 6

    Remove crackers from the oven and allow to cool, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated. Transfer to a serving bowl.
