Instructions

  1. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and lay out 1 sleeve of Ritz crackers with the flat side facing up.
  2. Spread ~2 tsp. of peanut butter on each cracker, I usually just eyeball it and make sure it's a nice thick layer of peanut butter.
  3. Carefully place another cracker on top to create a sandwich, with the rounded side up. (2 crackers per cookie)
  4. Place the white chocolate melting wafers in a microwave safe bowl and heat until melted. I usually heat for 1 minute, stir and then heat for another minute and stir again. It should be melted and smooth. You can add coconut oil into your white chocolate to help with the melting, but if you have the wafers it's not necessary.
  5. Once chocolate is melted and smooth, dunk each cookie into the white chocolate so it's coated completely and set back on the parchment paper. I like to use a fork to dunk in the chocolate and be sure to tap excess melted chocolate off. Drizzle any extra white chocolate on top of cookies.
  6. Finish the cookies with sprinkles and flaky sea salt and repeat with the remaining cookies. Allow the chocolate to set up, then serve & enjoy!
