🎅 4-Ingredient Christmas Chocolate Peanut Butter Crackers
This recipe tastes like something from a fancy candy shop, but it comes together in minutes using pantry staples.
Ingredients
1 sleeve Ritz crackers
Creamy peanut butter
1½ cups chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet)
Holiday sprinkles (or crushed candy canes)
That’s it. No butter, no sugar, no mixer, no stress.
🧑🍳 How to Make It
- Spread the peanut butter
Spread a generous layer of peanut butter onto one Ritz cracker, then sandwich it with another cracker. Repeat until all crackers are used. - Melt the chocolate
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. - Dip & decorate
Dip each sandwich into the melted chocolate, coating completely. Place on parchment paper and immediately sprinkle with holiday sprinkles. - Set & enjoy
Let them set at room temperature or refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until firm.
That’s it. Seriously.
