Simple Toffee & Chocolate Bars

Does anyone else getting into baking mode around the holidays?  I don’t know if it’s the shorter, cold days or the excitement of being with family and friends…but this time of year I really pick up the pace on baking treats.  I always like to always have goodies on my counter for everyone to enjoy.    These Toffee & Chocolate bars are super easy to make and a favorite around the holidays.   They begin with a base of graham crackers at the bottom, followed by a buttery layer of brown sugar and pecans and topped off with melted chocolate.    Yum!   Be sure to give them a try!
