Ingredients
50Ritz crackers
1 ¼cuppeanut butter*
1{12 oz} bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1-2Tbsp.coconut oil
Directions
Spread peanut butter onto one cracker.
Top with an additional cracker to make a sandwich.
In a medium bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Dip the peanut butter cracker sandwich in the melted chocolate, spooning melted chocolate over to coat the entire cracker.
Using a fork, pick up the coated sandwich from the bottom. Shake off any excess chocolate and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
Repeat for all remaining crackers.
Place in the refrigerator for about 5-10 minutes, until chocolate is set. Store in an airtight container on the counter {or even better, in the freezer}.
Recipe Notes
*Note: do not use natural peanut butter. It’s too runny and makes the sandwiches harder to set up.
