Ingredients
Scale
Cracker Sandwiches
- 1 sleeve (9 sheets) graham crackers, broken in half
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
- ¼ cup butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Coating
- 1 cup semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter (for smooth melting)
Instructions
- Make the Peanut Butter Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth, creamy, thick, and spreadable.
- Assemble the Graham Sandwiches: Break each graham cracker sheet in half to create squares. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture onto one half, then top it with another graham cracker half to form a sandwich. Place all sandwiches on a parchment-lined tray.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips together with the coconut oil or butter in 20-second bursts, stirring well between each, until the mixture is fully smooth and melted.
- Dip or Drizzle: Dip each peanut butter sandwich halfway into the melted chocolate or alternatively drizzle the chocolate over the tops using a spoon. Place them back on the parchment-lined tray. Optionally, sprinkle with sea salt for extra flavor.
- Chill Until Set: Refrigerate the tray for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate coating is firm and set. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
Notes
- Use creamy peanut butter for the smoothest filling texture.
- Softened butter at room temperature helps blend the filling smoothly.
- You can choose semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips depending on your preferred chocolate flavor.
- For melting chocolate, do not overheat to avoid burning; stir frequently.
- Sea salt sprinkled on top enhances the sweet and salty flavor combination.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
