Ever had a Heath Bar? It's like that without the chocolate, I
suppose it's toffee. You used to be able to buy it in bags of
chips, I thought they were discontinued by ? Nestle? Look by
the chocolate chips, or make your own. It's crunchy.

If you can't buy Bits 'O' Brickle from Heath any more in the section where
the chocolate chips live in your local grocer, I would imagine you could
bash up an equivalency of Heath or Skor bars to replace it. The bashed-up
bars would have a little chocolate in it, since the Bits 'O' Brickle were
just the toffee itself, but I dunno if that would necessarily be a bad
thing... :)

You can make pecan pie bars with an alternative method.
