Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Combine the first 3 ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly so the mixture does not scorch on the bottom. Keep boiling and stirring until it thickens and turns a deep tan color, looking like a brown paper bag, which should take several minutes.

  2. Step 2.

    Pour the thickened mixture onto a greased cookie sheet and spread it out evenly with a spatula while it is still hot.

  3. Step 3.

    Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the hot mixture. Let them sit for a minute or two so the residual heat melts them, then spread the melted chocolate smooth over the surface with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

  4. Step 4.

    Let the mixture cool at room temperature until the chocolate sets and the base hardens completely. Once firm, break it into irregular pieces.
