CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER RITZ CRACKERS

I know. Do you really need a recipe for these? It’s like giving a recipe for graham crackers dipped in frosting or a ham and cheese sandwich. Simple yet delicious.

I remember when I first had these. It was 2005 and my friend Brooke gave them to me for Christmas. I inhaled them. When I asked for the recipe I couldn’t believe how simple they were. Crackers, peanut butter, chocolate. A sweet and salty combo made in heaven.

INGREDIENTS:

  • Ritz crackers

HOW TO THIN OUT THE CHOCOLATE

Dipping the Ritz crackers can sometimes be tricky depending on the kind of chocolate you use. If you need to thin out the chocolate you can add a tablespoon of butter, coconut oil, or shortening to smooth it out and make it a thinner consistency.
