Instructions

  • Gather all your ingredients and tools. Pre-measure the peanut butter, chocolate chips, and powdered sugar for a smooth cooking experience.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, add the 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
  • Once the chocolate is melted, add the 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is fully combined and glossy.
  • Lay out the 32 Ritz crackers on your baking sheet. Using a spoon, generously coat each cracker with the chocolate-peanut butter mixture.
  • Once all the crackers are coated, place them in a zip-top bag with the 2 cups of powdered sugar. Seal the bag and shake gently until the cookies are well coated in the sugar.
  • Transfer the coated cookies back to the baking sheet. Place them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
  • Once set, these cookies are ready to be enjoyed. Serve them at your next gathering or keep them in an airtight container for a sweet snack throughout the week.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • These cookies can be frozen for up to three months.
  • Experiment with different toppings like sprinkles or crushed candy canes for a festive touch.
