Ingredients

All you need is 4 simple ingredients to get started.

Ritz crackers – original Ritz crackers. We use the regular crackers – but you can find holiday shapes at certain times of the year. We have yet to see hearts, though!

Peanut butter – we use and recommend creamy peanut butter, although crunchy peanut butter can be used.

White chocolate or almond bark – you can use white chocolate chips, white chocolate candy melts, or almond bark.

Valentine’s Day sprinkles – use your favorite Valentine’s sprinkles. Here are a few adorable options:

• Rose Gold & Pink
• Valentine’s Day
• Pink Sprinkles
• Red Sprinkles

Supplies & Favorite Tools to Make No-Bake Treats

Medium bowl and mixing spoon – use a microwave-safe bowl for melting the white chocolate in the microwave (another option is a double-broiler on the stovetop).

Baking sheet – a baking pan will allow you to move the cookies around more easily and help contain the sprinkles.

Parchment or wax paper – we love to use wax or parchment to easily remove the cookies, and for easy cleanup.

Piping bag or decorating tool – for drizzling. Although drizzling is optional, it makes them look a bit fancier.

Serving tray or storage container – arrange the cookies on a cute serving tray after the chocolate has set, or store them in an airtight container until you are ready to serve.

How to Make Ritz Cracker Valentine Cookies

Follow these simple steps to make these adorable Valentine’s Day treats.

Step 1 | Prepare Baking Sheet

Begin by preparing a baking pan with wax or parchment paper (optional, but makes for easy cleanup).

Using a butter knife, spread peanut butter on one side of the Ritz cracker.

Dip each cookie into the melted white chocolate, covering the entire surface of the cracker. Carefully remove with a fork or dipping tool and tap any excess chocolate off in the bowl.

Repeat the dipping process, placing each coating cookie onto the prepared baking sheet.
