Ingredients
60Ritz crackers2 sleeves
2cupscreamy peanut buttermore if desired
10ounceswhite chocolate chipsdairy-free or regular (sub white almond bark)
2teaspoonscoconut oil
sprinklesoptional
Instructions
Peanut Butter: Take two Ritz crackers and spread about ½ - 1 tablespoon of peanut butter on the rough, salty side of the cracker. Take the second cracker and place the rough, salty side down on the open peanut butter and press together like a sandwich. Take finger and smooth peanut butter that may be sticking out between the crackers. Repeat until you have used all the Ritz crackers.
Melt Chocolate: Place 10 ounces white chocolate chips and 2 teaspoons coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds and stir. Then continue microwaving for 10-15 second intervals, checking and stirring between each one, until it is melted and smooth.
Coat Crackers: One at a time, take the "cracker sandwiches" and hold with your thumb and middle finger on opposite sides, where the crackers and peanut butter come together - this will allow you to hold the crackers in place so they don't slide apart as you are spreading the almond bark. Take a butter knife and start spreading the melted almond bark around the entire cookie.
Dry and Serve: Place on wax paper immediately to dry. If you want sprinkles, add immediately as they dry quite quickly.
Gluten-Free: if you are looking to make these Gluten-Free try the Schar Entertainment crackers (certified gluten-free)!
White Chocolate: feel free to use regular white chocolate chips or dairy-free white chocolate chips. Also, I did grow up using almond bark on these so you can definitely use that if you prefer.
Regular Chocolate: you can also make these with milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips!
Storage: Store in an airtight container on the counter top for 2-3 weeks.
Peanut Free: you can definitely sub in sunbutter if you need to.
