Here is a quick treat that would make a wonderful edible gifts for the holidays!
Candy Coated Peanut Butter Crackers
Just a few supplies is all you need to make these tasty treats. I used Ritz crackers, creamy peanut butter, white candy coating and some rainbow coarse sugar (or color of your choice). A half pound of white candy coating will coat at least one dozen cracker sandwiches.
First begin melting the candy coating. Place candy discs in an oven safe bowl. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. When oven is heated turn the oven OFF. Place bowl of candy in the oven for 10 minutes.
While candy is melting make the peanut butter sandwiches. Spread peanut butter between two crackers (tops to the middle) and smooth the sides. You don’t need much peanut butter ( I was a little generous —but if you like peanut butter go for it).
Let the sandwich go for a swim in the candy!
Lift the sandwich out with a fork or tongs. Firmly tap the handle of the fork against the top edge of the bowl to remove extra candy from the cracker sandwich.
While cookies are still wet sprinkle with some colorful holiday coarse sugar. Allow cookies to harden on wax paper. In about 10 minutes you have a sweet treat!
If you love peanut butter like we do you might like these easy peanut butter cookies. These peanut butter cup blondies are also a family favorite
Enjoy!
Woah this blog is fantastic i really like reading your articles. Stay up the great work! You realize, a lot of people are hunting around for this information, you can help them greatly.
Just a thought!! This won’t be a pretty if you are giving them as a gift but for yourself at home it works great. Whenever I dip something like this, pretzels, oreos or dried apricots I only dip half of the item. That way you can hold onto the cracker, etc. and not have to fish it out of the chocolate. It makes the process alot easier.
Saw those on “Dinah’s Dishes” last year and they quickly became a favourite. Perfect blend of sweet and salty!
Is that a Polish Pottery bowl?? I love Polish Pottery! I think I’ll try these…they sound delicious.
These are delicious for sure….I use chocolate and vanilla Almond Bark, it’s also very good and a cheaper alternative. I make these every year….to me they taste like Tagalongs (girl scout cookie).
I bet that would be great with Nutella!
We make these with the miniture ritz that you can buy with the peanut butter already in them its a little easier you dont have to spread the peanut butter and they are so fun and cute to do weve done food coloring, but ive never tried the sprinkles, but that sounds awsome. The kids just love the little minitures.
So pretty with the sprinkles, my mom would make something similar with Wheat Thins (and no sprinkles)! 🙂
These look GREAT! I just love your website- you have so many great things posted on here!
these things are just plain evil! ha! i just had some last week for the first time and i ate WAY too many!!
YUMMO! My Amish friends made these for me and used milk chocolate coating…..thanks for the reminder, I haven’t had these for a long time!
My mother has made these before, minus the sprinkles. They really are delicious!! 🙂
This is one of those things that you just assume everyone knows about, but they’re SOOO delicious!!!
I have made these for years and years to put on my cookie platter…I am now wondering why I only make them at Christmas..it makes no sense because they are so yummy!
Thanks for bringing them to the masses!
Oh these look so yummy! I’d love one right now!
