Cookies made with Ritz? It sounds strange, but the results are delicious! Chocolate dunks crispy, buttery Ritz crackers with sweet peanut butter filling.
– 1 cup creamy peanut butter (similar to Jif or Skippy; 250 grams)– ½ cup powdered sugar (60 grams)– 60 Ritz cracker
Ingredient
– 16 ounces semi-sweet or white chocolate roughly chopped (I like Bakers or Ghirardelli chocolate bars)– Optional: Sprinkles for topping
Direction
In a bowl, mix peanut butter and powdered sugar to make these cookies. Mix powdered sugar into peanut butter until fully combined. Step: Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula!

Place 30 Ritz crackers in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Scoop 2 teaspoons of peanut butter onto each Ritz cracker and top with another.
Press lightly until the peanut butter filling reaches the edges. Put the baking sheet in the freezer for 15 minutes. Although optional, this makes them firmer and easier to dip!

Make smooth chopped chocolate in 30-second bursts in a heat-safe bowl while cookies chill. Line another baking sheet with parchment. Half-melted chocolate on a frozen Ritz cookie.

I like to use a fork to tap off excess chocolate. After coating the cookie in chocolate, use a toothpick to remove it from the fork and place it on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with sprinkles.

Repeat with remaining frozen cookies. After coating the cookies, refrigerate the batch until the chocolate sets.
