I haven't been watching this thread closely, but I'm a little confused about the need for the double boiler. I've never needed it.

It's possible the sugar mixture is not getting hot enough, so I pulled my recipe and gave it a look-see for diffs.

Here's the one I use...

Quote:
The Brickle Recipe (actually called "Butter Toffee Cracker Surprise")

Igredients:
Saltine Crackers
2 Sticks Butter
1 Cp. Sugar
1 - 12 Oz. bag Semi Sweet chocolate morsels
Nuts

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Line cookies sheet or shallow pan with aluminum foil. Place crackers in
single layer on sheet.

Melt butter in saucepan and add sugar. Mix at full boil for three
minutes. Remove from heat and pour over crackers.

Put in preheated oven for five minutes. Should be very bubbly.

Remove from oven and spread chocolate chips over mixture. They will
melt. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon and top with chopped nuts of your
choice.

Place in freezer to harden.

When hardened, remove from freezer and break into bite sized pieces.
Notice the few differences...

Sugar, instead of brown sugar

Boil the sugar and butter together

400 degrees instead of 325
