Better than Butterfinger Cookies

“This is my original recipe I came up with one year I did not have time to bake for Christmas, using two things I love: peanut butter and chocolate!” wrote

Holly Knull of Menomonee Falls, about this Triple Play cookie. “They are a family favorite now.”

Makes about 2 dozen

2 sleeves Ritz crackers

Creamy peanut butter

12 full-size Hershey chocolate bars

1 bag white chocolate chips

Colored decorator sugar

Open Ritz cracker sleeves and discard any broken or chipped crackers.

Spread 1 teaspoon peanut butter on the side of a cracker with the holes. Cover with another cracker, holes side down. Repeat with all remaining crackers.

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or foil.

Melt chocolate bars in microwave. Using two forks, dip each cracker sandwich into melted chocolate to cover entire cracker. Tap forks to knock off excess chocolate. Set on lined cookie sheet.

When all are coated, melt white chocolate chips in microwave. Using a sandwich bag with the corner snipped (or a pastry bag with a tip), drizzle white chocolate over finished cracker. Add decorator sugar if desired.

Place in freezer 1 hour. Then trim off excess chocolate. Keep in a covered container. Note: I keep mine in the freezer because they are so good frozen!
