I made these using Chocolate Almond Bark as many suggested and they were great!!! The first time I made them, I made up the Ritz with peanut butter; and the second time as an experiment, I used the premade Ritz peanut butter crackers. We actually liked them both ways. One because of the thicker filling and the other for the saltier taste. I may try Ritz Bits some day; but they may go down too easy!!! \ud83d\ude0a I used a cake tester for dipping. I stuck it through the middle hole and dipped.

    My mom makes these every year for Christmas. This cookie recipe is even slightly more complicated than her version - she doesn't use shortening and just melts the chocolate in the microwave. Either way, you get a quick and tasty dessert that's easy to transport and share! PLUS the peanut butter fills you up a bit more than just sugar cookies do.<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"09\/05\/2017 09:02","GUID":"8462bec61a0d46ecb11f66e25cc2a988","MemberId":8717427,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"gina.kapfhamer","SubmittedDate":"09\/05\/2017 09:02"},{"Comment":"

    You can also make these with almond bark chocolate flavored coating.

    My son turned me on to these cookies over the holidays. He had some at a friend's house and raved about them. He told me how they were made, but it seemed to simple - it just couldn't be that easy. Well, I was wrong! After looking on the internet, I found this recipe, which matched what he told me. After making them, I definitely know why he raved!! These are great!! I've made them several times since the holidays (and this is only March), and I'm making them again this weekend.

    I have made somelike these a number of times, using original Ritz crackers, peanut better (some smooth & some chunky), and some squares of white chocolate, and some of milk chocolate. They are yummy!!! I took them to a cookie exchange party last Christmas, and when invited back this year, the host told me that those chocolate dipped peanut butter cookies was the most liked cookies that she has ever received at her cookie exchange parties. She told me that her husband and son do not care too much for real sweet snacks, but these are perfect because the salt from the Ritz & peanut butter tones down the sweetness of the chocolate.<\/p>","CommentId":19,"DateRated":"","GUID":"3F331DD9462245B2A335B329AA98F2BA","MemberId":3579301,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"aprudd","SubmittedDate":"12\/06\/2008 15:32"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":20,"DateRated":"02\/22\/2006 18:27","GUID":"775a791e49ee413397f5a31685ea355d","MemberId":1161954,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"lynn aniceto","SubmittedDate":"02\/22\/2006 18:27"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":309177,"name":"Recipes","slug":"recipes","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":309112,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Browse Taste Recipes recipes by course, cooking style, cuisine, ingredient, holiday and more categories to find a new family-favorite recipe.","parent":0,"count":50869,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","url":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/"},{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
