White Chocolate Ritz Crackers

My mom has been making these Ritz crackers, peanut butter dipped in white chocolate, for as long as I can remember and they’re always a huge hit with everyone. 

(I know, white chocolate dipped Ritz crackers sounds weird, but you’ll just have to trust me.)

This holiday recipe falls between a cookie and a candy.

They are Ritz crackers, made into cracker sandwiches with peanut butter in the middle, and then dipped in white chocolate.

It sounds so simple (and it is), but these are sooooo good.

Also, they make great gifts to package up in a clear gift jar (or holiday baking boxes), tie with a festive bow, and give as homemade Christmas gifts.

We prefer white chocolate melts for this holiday cookie recipe (?candy recipe), but you can use any kind of chocolate (or color of chocolate melts) that go with your theme!

What’s white chocolate?

Is white chocolate chocolate? White chocolate isn’t actual chocolate. Instead, it is what is known as a “chocolate confection” made up of cocoa butter, sugar, milk solids (instead of cocoa solids) and vanilla. Since it does not contain cocoa solids, it cannot be classified as chocolate (even though it’s called that).

How To Melt White Chocolate

White chocolate is easily melted in a double boiler over low heat. If you are making a recipe with kids, melting white chocolate is safe in a mini crockpot food warmer. This allows the chocolate to stay melted while you dip cookies, fruit, or pretzels.

A mini crockpot LIKE THIS is perfect for melted chocolate recipes. CHECK THE SALE PRICE.
