A delightful treat combining buttery Ritz crackers with rich chocolate and refreshing mint, perfect for sharing and creating memories.


Ingredients

  • Ritz Crackers
  • Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • Peppermint Extract
  • Sprinkles (optional)
  • Sea Salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gather Your Ingredients: Assemble everything you need to keep the process seamless and enjoyable.
  2. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt your semi-sweet chocolate chips at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
  3. Add Mint Extract: Carefully mix in a few drops of peppermint extract once melted.
  4. Coat the Crackers: Dip each Ritz cracker in the melted chocolate, ensuring each side gets a beautiful chocolate glaze.
  5. Cool and Top: Lay the dipped crackers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle crushed mint candies or sea salt on top if desired.
  6. Chill Until Firm: Refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate hardens completely.
  7. Enjoy: Serve on a platter or store in an airtight container for later enjoyment.

Notes

Be careful not to use too much peppermint extract; a little goes a long way. Allow ample time for the chocolate to set in the fridge for best results.
