Easy Ritz Cracker Cookie Recipe

Sharing is caring!

This easy Ritz cracker cookie is a Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Crunch cookie with a Caramel Drizzle. There is no baking required and you can make as little or as many cookies as you want! 

It’s a super simple, no-bake, kid-friendly cookie recipe! And depending on the crackers you use – this could also be a gluten-free recipe. 

I have so many yummy Christmas cookie recipes. But sometimes you need an easy recipe to throw together for a quick party or something very simple that the kids can make. 

I love this recipe because you may already have all the ingredients in your home! Plus it’s so customizable! It is just a basic recipe to get your creative juices going! 

 

   

Ritz Cracker Cookies

Makes 10-15 crunch crackers

Ritz crackers (20-30) – they do have so many different types of crackers – but I would stick to plain crackers for this recipe. 

1 cup of melting chocolate or chocolate chips  – you could use white, dark, or milk chocolate. Or grab some flavored chocolate chips like butterscotch or peanut butter chips to change up the flavors. 

1 tablespoon coconut oil 

Peanut butter – you can use crunchy or plain peanut butter. It would be good with almond or cashew butter too! Or if you are allergic use a nut-free butter. 

Caramel sauce is delicious but you could use chocolate or butterscotch sauce to change up the flavors. 

Flaked sea salt – this is optional but it’s so yummy! I love the extra punch of the sea salt with the sweetness of the chocolate and the crunch of the crackers!

I did not make this recipe but I sure did save it. What a great treat to make with things you already have in the pantry.

I wasn’t a fan of the chips melted with coconut oil. Typically I would use almond bark but gave this a try. The chocolate never really set unless they stayed in the fridge.

Im so sorry it didn't work for you. Sometimes I just leave out the coconut oil. I know sometimes different ingredients work differently.
