Saltine Candy with Chocolate Nuts

This is another treat I like to make. Nice mixture of sweet and salty. I don't know where I got this recipe.

40 saltines
1 cup butter (do not use margarine)
1 cup light brown sugar (do not use dark)
12 ounces chocolate chips
1 cup nuts of your choice (I've used both walnuts and pecans)

Line up the saltines on a jelly roll pan that has been lined with foil that makes a bigger rim than the pan. There should be 5 rows of 8. In pan on stove, melt butter and add light brown sugar. Stir often and bring to a full rolling boil for exactly 3 minutes. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and wait until they are almost melted; spread over all the saltines. Drop the nuts over the top as evenly as possible. Refrigerate for two hours and then break up into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
