1 tube saltines, 40 crackers +
1 cup butter, 2 sticks, either salted or unsalted; do not use margarine

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) degrees.
Line cookie sheet with foil & spray with non-stick cooking spray. Line crackers end to end on sheet, breaking crackers to fit the end if necessary.

Pour over crackers, spread evenly working quickly.
Put sheet into oven - bake for 5 minutes.
Remove - pour chocolate chips over top - place a sheet of foil over and let melt for 3 minutes.
Spread melted chocolate over the top evenly. Add nuts to top - replace foil and refrigerate until set. (Can be frozen.)
