Poor Man's Candy?

I've seen this sort of recipe around and think it is a great one when you are low on cash yet want to make something special for your family or friends during the holidays.  The combination of sweet and salty has gotten to be a classic.

Poor Man's Candy
16 or so saltine crackers
1 stick butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1/4 white chocolate chips
1/2 cup slivered almonds, chopped walnuts or pecans

Line and grease an 8-inch baking pan with foil and grease with vegetable oil spray. Place enough saltine crackers to cover the bottom of the pan, one cracker deep. Set aside.

Bring the butter and sugars to a boil. Stirring constantly, cook for 3-4 minutes. Pour the butter/sugar mixture over the crackers in the pan. Bake at 375 for five minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle the milk chocolate chips over the top and bake another minute. Remove from oven and scatter on the white chocolate chip and when they soften spread out the chocolate and white chocolate to give a marbelizing effect. Scatter the nuts over the top, chill, and cut into squares.

Ideas . . .
Instead of nuts, you could scatter a small candy of choice over the spread out chocolate.
Toasted coconut and dried pineapple (diced finely) would make a good substitute for the nuts.
Crushed peppermint would be a good finale.
All white chocolate chips and crushed pretzels would be quite different.
Peanut butter chips and crushed peanuts could be a favorite.
