Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F. This ensures that everything will cook evenly. While the oven is heating, line a large jelly roll pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Next, arrange the Saltine crackers in a single layer in the jelly roll pan. It’s important to pack them closely, as this forms the base for your delicious toppings.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter and packed light brown sugar together over medium heat. Stir the mixture continuously until it comes to a boil. You want to see it bubble and turn a beautiful caramel color. This will take a few minutes, so be patient and keep an eye on it.
Once it reaches the right color, pour the caramel mixture evenly over the arranged Saltine crackers. Make sure to cover them completely to maximize flavor in every bite.
Next, take the creamy peanut butter and place it in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave it for about 20 seconds to make it easier to spread. After that, give it a good stir before pouring it evenly over the crackers. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly.
Now, pop the pan in the oven for 3 minutes. This will allow the layers to meld together beautifully.
After removing it from the oven, sprinkle the white chocolate chips on top. Return it to the oven for another 1 to 2 minutes. Keep an eye on it; you want the chips to melt just enough to spread them easily.
Using a rubber spatula, spread the melted white chocolate evenly over the top. This will create a smooth, sweet layer that ties everything together.
Finally, refrigerate the entire pan until chilled. Once set, you can break it into pieces and serve. Enjoy this delightful treat and share it with your loved ones!
