Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 1/2 cup Peanut Butter
- 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tbsp Water
- 1 pkg Ritz Crackers
- 1 pkg Melting Chocolate
- Halloween Sprinkles
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar, and water with a whisk or an electric hand mixer.
- Place ritz crackers on a sheet pan lined with wax paper spacing them out so they are not touching.
- Add a dollop of peanut butter to each cracker using either a spoon or my piping bag method discussed above.
- Place a second Ritz cracker on top of the peanut butter and gently press down careful not to break the cracker.
- Melt the melting chocolate in the microwave on 50% power for 120 seconds. Once it starts to melt, microwave on 50% power in 30-second increments stirring in between until the chocolate is smooth. Do NOT try and rush this part or the chocolate will burn.
- Once the chocolate is melted, dip the crackers or fully immerse them in the chocolate for a covered cracker.
- After coating the peanut butter Ritz crackers, lay them out to set up on a cookie sheet or wire rack lined with wax paper or parchment paper. For my half dipped crackers I found that I could stand them up on end in my mini muffin tin so I could decorate both sides.
- While the chocolate is still wet, use your hand to drizzle the sprinkles over each cracker. If you use melting chocolate it sets up faster so don’t wait too long.
- Once all the Ritz cracker sandwiches are dipped or covered, place the baking sheet in the fridge for 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
- Warning, you may need a cold glass of milk to go with these 😉
