Toasted Ice Water Crackers
Ingredients
- 4 cup ice water
- 24 saltine crackers
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a baking sheet or two. Have ready a bowl of ice water, the melted butter and a small, soft brush. Drop the crackers in the water about 6 at a time. After 28-30 seconds, carefully but quickly lift them out, allow water to drain well, and place on a baking sheet. Do not try to do too many at one time because by the time you get to the last ones they will have become too soggy. When you have a full baking sheet, brush each cracker lightly with the melted butter. Don't use too much pressure because you don't want to flatten the crackers. Toast in the oven for 10 minutes, then turn heat down to 300 degrees. Continue to toast for an additional 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool; store in a container with a tight lid. Yield: 24 crackers.
