Holiday Mint Chocolate Cracker Delights! 🎁
These delightful mint chocolate crackers are the perfect easy-to-make treat for your holiday gatherings or a festive New Year's dessert. With minimal prep and cook time, they offer a burst of minty chocolate goodness in every bite!
Equipment
- Parchment Paper
- Microwave-safe Bowl
- Fork
Ingredients
- 10 ounces Andes Creme de Menthe baking chips or thin mints
- 2 sleeves Ritz crackers (approximately 60-64 count)
- festive sprinkles, crushed candy canes, or flaky sea salt optional, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace: Line a large cutting board or several plates with parchment paper. This simple step makes cleanup super easy!
- Melt the Minty Chocolate: Place your Andes mint chips or thins into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat them in short 20-second bursts, stirring thoroughly with a fork after each interval, until the chocolate is perfectly smooth and creamy.
- Dip the Crackers: Gently dip each Ritz cracker into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to fully coat it, then lift it out, allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl for a lighter, crispier coating.
- Set and Decorate: Place the chocolate-covered crackers onto your prepared parchment paper. If you're adding optional festive toppings like sprinkles or a touch of sea salt, do it now while the chocolate is still soft.
- Chill to Perfection: Let the chocolate firm up for at least 40 minutes at room temperature, or for a quicker set, place them in the fridge. Once solid, these delightful treats are ready to enjoy!
Notes
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at cool room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
