# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They are impossibly addictive and disappear faster than you can bake them
  • The recipe takes twenty minutes from start to finish with zero fancy techniques
02 -
  • Stirring halfway through baking is nonnegotiable or the crackers on the bottom will burn while the top stays soft
  • Let them cool completely before storing or they will steam in the container and lose their crunch
03 -
  • Use a large bowl with high sides to toss the crackers so they do not escape while mixing
  • Double the recipe because a single batch disappears faster than you expect
