Aaron's Toffee Crunch Grahams...

Ingredients:
  • 12 whole graham crackers
  • 1.5 cups butter (no substitutes; if you do, we will know and we'll have to kill you)
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar (how come you dance so good, girl!)
  • 2 cups sliced almonds/walnuts/pecans (your choice, but choose wisely, because the wrong choice could screw up the entire batch!)

    Got 'em all? Okay, let's go!
    Line a 10x15 pan with foil. Place graham crackers on foil. In saucepan, combine butter and brown sugar. Bring to boil, stirring constantly (if YOU are also stirring constantly, check for fleas). Pour over crackers on pan. Sprinkle with nuts. Bake at 400F for 5 minutes. Transfer to rack (nice rack, btw!) to cool completely. VoilĂ !!!

    Per songfacts.com, regarding the Stones' Brown Sugar: Mick Jagger wrote the lyrics. They were inspired by Claudia Lennear, one of Ike Turner's backup singers (Ikettes) who he had an affair with. They met when The Stones toured with Turner in 1969.
