Ritz Cracker Cookies
Christmas Ritz cookies are one that you will love for the affordability and the ease. If you have kids let them help spread the filling on crackers and add sprinkles on top. It is a fun family-friendly recipe.
What Type Of Chocolate Do You Use for Chocolate Dipped Ritz Cookies
I used a white almond bark as the base of the dipped cookie. Then candy melts that are green and red for the decorations. If you wanted you could use a chocolate almond bark as the base if you prefer milk chocolate over white chocolate.
What Is The Filling In Chocolate Ritz Cookies
I used creamy peanut butter. You are welcome to use crunchy if you prefer, or even marshmallow fluff or a blend of peanut butter and fluff.
Can I Use Regular Chocolate Chips In Replace of Almond Bark
Yes, if you want you can use white or milk chocolate. Just add a teaspoon of shortening in with the chocolate chips and stir well before dipping. This will help to allow the chocolate to harden. Otherwise, they will stay pretty soft and melt easily.
How To Store Ritz Dipped Crackers
Allow your cookies to harden and then store in an airtight container. You can even store these in a sealable bag as well, just try and get all the air out you can. They will last 7-10 days stored properly on the counter. Or if you prefer you can place them in the fridge for a sweet chilled treat.
Can You Freeze Chocolate Dipped Ritz Cookies
Yes, you can freeze these chocolate-dipped Ritz cookies. Simply allow them to set up, and then store in a freezer bag or airtight container. They will last up to three months in the freezer. Just remove from freezer and allow to thaw on counter before serving.
What Type Of Sprinkles To Use For Dipped Ritz Christmas Cookies
You are welcome to skip sprinkles or reach for some fun and playful ones if you will. You can buy an assortment of Christmas Sprinkles in one, so it saves you from having to buy multiple containers for a variety if you want that. Or you could do something fun, like these Candy Cane shaped sprinkles!
