Main Ingredients
- 1 cup White Chocolate Chips or Bars
- 2 cups Saltine or Butter Crackers
Optional Ingredients
- Sea Salt, for sprinkling (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- Optional Toppings: Sprinkles, chopped Nuts (almonds, pecans, pistachios), dried Cranberries or Apricot bits, cinnamon or chili powder
- Prep Your Crackers: Lay your crackers in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ready to be coated with luscious white chocolate.
- Melt the White Chocolate: Using a double boiler or microwave in short intervals, gently melt the white chocolate until smooth, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
- Add Optional Vanilla: If you’re using vanilla extract, stir it into the melted chocolate now to infuse extra flavor.
- Coat the Crackers: Using a fork or spatula, dip each cracker into the melted chocolate or drizzle the chocolate generously over them for a delicious coating.
- Add Toppings and Sea Salt: Sprinkle your choice of nuts, sprinkles, or sea salt on the chocolate while it’s still wet to ensure it adheres perfectly.
- Chill and Set: Place the coated crackers in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden and the flavors to meld.
Notes
- Use Quality Chocolate: Good-quality white chocolate melts better and tastes richer for a superior snack.
- Don’t Overheat: Melt chocolate slowly to avoid graininess and burning, which can ruin the smooth finish.
- Work Quickly: Chocolate hardens fast, so have everything set up before you start dipping or drizzling.
- Even Coating: Tap off excess chocolate to prevent thick clumps and keep the crunch intact.
- Store Properly: Keep the finished crackers in an airtight container to maintain crispness and prevent melting.
