- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter along with the brown sugar, stirring until combined and the sugar dissolves. Then, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Allow it to boil for 2 minutes, keeping an eye on the mixture to avoid burning.

- Once set, break the candy into squares or rectangles and enjoy with a touch of salty satisfaction!
Cook's Tips:
- For effortless cleanup, line your baking sheet with foil instead of parchment paper, then spray it with cooking spray before layering the saltines.
- Store any leftover candy in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Switch up the flavors by swapping Reese's peanut butter chips with other types of chocolate, such as white chocolate, dark chocolate, or caramel-filled chips, to create a variety of delectable treats!
