What I love about this interactive dessert is that you make it whole, on a baking sheet, and when it’s time to eat (after dinner of course), you can encourage guests of all ages to break it apart, with a hammer or their fingers.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang.
Line the baking sheet with 1 layer of crackers, cutting to fit if needed.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla and bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour half of the mixture over the crackers and arrange another layer of crackers on top.
Pour the remaining mixture over the crackers and top with a third layer of crackers.
Combine the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan and melt gently. Pour the melted chocolate over the crackers and spread evenly. Scatter the almonds over the chocolate and add a sprinkle of sea salt.
Chill for at least 1 hour before lifting the dessert from the baking sheet and breaking into bars.
