• 3 cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips

• 1 tablespoon coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother coating)

• 2 sleeves Ritz crackers or similar round buttery crackers (about 60 crackers)

Instructions

1. Make the Peanut Butter Filling:
   In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and thick. The mixture should be firm enough to hold its shape but soft enough to spread. Chill for 15 minutes if too soft.

2. Assemble the Patties:
   Lay out half of the crackers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Scoop a generous spoonful of the peanut butter mixture onto each cracker and gently press another cracker on top to make a sandwich. Repeat until all are filled.

3. Freeze Before Dipping:
   Place the tray of peanut butter cracker sandwiches in the freezer for 20–30 minutes. This step helps the patties stay firm when dipping in the chocolate.

4. Melt the Chocolate:
   In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and glossy.

5. Dip and Coat:
   Using a fork or dipping tool, lower each sandwich into the melted chocolate and turn to coat completely. Let the excess drip off, then place the coated patties back on the parchment-lined tray.

6. Set the Chocolate:
   Place the dipped patties in the fridge or freezer until the chocolate sets completely, about 15–20 minutes.
