Total Time 2 hours hrs 20 minutes mins
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 8-10 sheets graham crackers
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
- flaky sea salt, for garnish
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 x 13 inch cake pan with parchment.
In a small saucepan, melt the sugar until completely smooth and golden, whisking constantly, about 6-8 minutes. Drop in the butter (be careful of splatters) and melt while whisking constantly. Pour in the heavy cream and simmer until thickened, about 2-3 minutes longer.
Arrange the graham cracker sheets in the prepared cake pan. You may have to break the sheets into smaller squares/rectangles. Pour the caramel over the crackers. Bake 5 minutes.
Immediately pour the chocolate chips over the caramel/crackers. When the chocolate melts, spread evenly, like frosting. Cover and chill the pan at least an hour, but preferably overnight.
Slice or break the bark into chunks. Sprinkle with flaky salt.
