Description

These Thin Mint Ritz Crackers are a delightful fusion of crispy and creamy textures, perfectly balanced with a rich chocolate mint flavor. Each bite offers a satisfying crunch followed by a smooth, sweet finish that will leave you craving more.


Ingredients

  • Ritz Crackers: 1 box (approximately 30 crackers)
  • Chocolate Mint Coating: 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Mint Extract: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Vegetable Oil: 1 tablespoon (for thinning chocolate)

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes total).
  2. Add the mint extract to the melted chocolate and stir until well combined.
  3. Dip each Ritz cracker into the chocolate mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Repeat until all crackers are coated, then refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
  5. Once set, serve immediately or store for later enjoyment.

Notes

  • Make-ahead: These crackers can be made up to a week in advance and stored in an airtight container.
  • Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain crispness.
  • Substitutions: Use dark chocolate for a richer flavor or white chocolate for a sweeter alternative.
