Cracker Cookies

By hcardall

Normally everyone makes these only at the holidays, but really, they are good year round. They make great gifts if you put them into a tin! I like to keep them in a zip lock bag in the fridge.

Ingredients

• 1 sleeve Club Crackers
• 12 oz Semi Sweet Chocolate Chip Morsels or Butterscotch Morsels (to cover- sometimes we use more.. don't make too thick, though.
• 1 Cup (2 sticks) Butter
• 1/2 Cup Sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• Finely Chopped Walnuts or sliced almonds
