Ingredients
Scale
- 48 Ritz crackers (split into two rounds each, referred to as ‘spliters’)
- 1 cup caramel sauce
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon shortening (optional, for smoother chocolate)
- Sprinkles or sea salt, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange Crackers: Place 24 Ritz spliters in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add Caramel: Top each spliter with about 1-2 teaspoons of caramel sauce.
- Form Sandwiches: Cover each caramel topped spliter with another spliter, pressing gently to form a sandwich.
- Melt Chocolate: Combine the chocolate chips and optional shortening in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Dip Sandwiches in Chocolate: Dip each caramel sandwich into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Use a fork to help drain excess chocolate and transfer back to the baking sheet.
- Garnish: Immediately sprinkle the wet chocolate with either sprinkles or a dash of sea salt, depending on your preference.
- Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes.
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
