Chocolate Covered Ritz Crackers
I have been a huge fan of chocolate-covered peanut butter Ritz crackers since I was a small child. As I was making up a batch for my kid’s, it occurred to me that I could kick it up a notch! Here are 3 more varieties that I think you will come to love as much as we do!
Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Ritz Crackers (printable recipe below)
Ingredients:
24 Ritz crackers
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
12 ounces milk chocolate (semi-sweet or chocolate almond bark also work)
Directions:
Spread peanut butter onto the tops of 12 crackers. (I like to have the salted side facing in, but you can spread peanut butter on whatever side you prefer.)
Place the rest of the crackers on top of the peanut butter and sandwich them together.
Melt chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler. Once the chocolate is melted, use a fork to dip the peanut butter cracker sandwich into the chocolate to coat. Shake off any excess and place onto a wax paper-lined cookie sheet. Let chocolate harden at room temperature.
Chocolate Covered Nutella Rita Crackers
Ingredients:
24 Ritz crackers
1 cup Nutella
12 ounces milk chocolate (semi-sweet or chocolate almond bark also work)

Spread Nutella onto the tops of 12 crackers, you can make it as thick as you would like. (I like to have the salted side facing in, but you can spread peanut butter on whatever side you prefer.)
Place the rest of the crackers on top of the Nutella and sandwich them together.
Melt chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler. Once the chocolate is melted, use a fork to dip the Nutella cracker sandwich into the chocolate to coat. Shake off any excess and place onto a wax paper-lined cookie sheet. Let chocolate harden at room temperature.

Thank you for making my recipe! You took pictures, right? Well go ahead and post them on Instagram! Be sure to mention me @iambaker and use the hashtag #YouAreBaker.
I do these for Christmas. I do the vanilla almond bark and chocolate. The vanilla bark with a cookie butter ritz is delicious. I will have to try the cookie dough this year.
Another similar idea to try. Melt and use white chocolate to coat these sandwiches.
I love chocolate covered peanut butter ritz! Sometimes I put peanut butter on one cracker & marshmallow fluff on another, put them together & dip. My other comment is, the raw cookie dough version, please be careful as eating raw flour could be dangerous, it could have salmonella.
I always use coconut oil about a tsp or as needed to help loosen up or thin the chips or bark when melting them. They set up marvelously because as we all know coconut oil stays solid @ room temps but it gives a nice thin coating on the cookies! I occasionally use 1/2 tsp of raspberry jam (or your fav flavor, no jelly though it slides off really bad) be sure to put peanut butter on both crackers and jam in between or your cracker will get soggy next to jam! For people that have nut allergies I have substituted cream cheese instead of peanut butter!
WHERE CAN I FIND THESE?
