Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Ritz crackers
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil (or vegetable oil)
- 0.25 cup Sprinkles or chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Lay out 12 Ritz crackers on the baking sheet.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of peanut butter on each Ritz cracker, creating an even layer.
Top each peanut butter-coated cracker with another Ritz cracker to form a sandwich. Lightly press together to ensure the peanut butter sticks.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth (approximately 1-2 minutes).
Using tongs or a fork, dip each cracker sandwich into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Let the excess chocolate drip off before placing the coated sandwich back on the prepared baking sheet.
If desired, garnish with sprinkles or chopped nuts immediately after dipping, before the chocolate sets.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully hardened.
Once set, transfer the snack cookies to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerated for longer freshness.
