Ingredients

> Baking spray

> 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
> 2 tsp vanilla extract

> 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
> 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Steps

1
Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and coat with the baking spray. Arrange the saltine crackers in a single, solid layer on the baking sheet, breaking to fit if necessary.
2
In a large microwave-safe bowl, microwave the butter on high 1 min., until melted. Whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, extract, salt, and vinegar until smooth. Microwave on high, uncovered, 6 min., in 2-min. intervals, whisking thoroughly in between. Microwave 1–2 min. more, until slightly more amber in color, checking every 30 sec.
3
Whisk caramel, then carefully pour over crackers, spreading to cover them completely. Tap pan gently. Let stand until caramel hardens.
4
Meanwhile, in a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave the dark chocolate chips in 30-sec. intervals, until melted, stirring in between intervals. Dollop dark chocolate over caramel. Repeat melting with the white chocolate chips. Dollop over caramel.
5
With tip of paring knife or skewer, swirl chocolates together over surface of caramel. Refrigerate until chocolate sets. Break into bite-size pieces and package immediately or store in an airtight container.
