Directions

Melt the chocolate almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl following package directions. Typically, heat at 50% power for 30 seconds, stir, and repeat until fully melted.
Line two large baking sheets with parchment or wax paper. Place half of the Ritz crackers evenly on the sheets.
Using a greased spoon, place 1 to 2 teaspoons of marshmallow creme in the center of each cracker.
Top each with another Ritz cracker and gently press to create a sandwich with an even marshmallow layer.
Using small tongs or a fork, carefully dip each cracker sandwich into the melted chocolate, tapping off excess chocolate on the side of the bowl. Place dipped cookies on the lined baking sheets.
If desired, sprinkle your choice of graham cracker crumbs, marshmallow bits, mini chocolate chips, or festive sprinkles on top of the wet chocolate.
Allow the cookies to set at room temperature until the chocolate hardens completely.

Servings and Timing

Makes about 24 cookies. Prep time: 15 minutes. No bake time required beyond setting.

Variations

Use dark, milk, or white chocolate almond bark for different flavor profiles.
Swap marshmallow creme for homemade marshmallow fluff.
Add crushed nuts or coconut flakes to the toppings for extra texture.
Try adding a drizzle of caramel or peanut butter before dipping in chocolate.

Storage/Reheating

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerated for up to 5 days. Separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking. No reheating needed.

FAQs

Can I use regular chocolate instead of almond bark?

Almond bark melts smoothly and hardens well, but you can use good-quality chocolate chips if tempered properly.

How long do these cookies last?

Stored properly, they last up to 5 days at room temperature or refrigerated.

Can I make these gluten-free?

Yes, substitute Ritz crackers and graham crumbs with gluten-free versions.

Do I have to refrigerate them?

Not necessary, but refrigeration helps speed up the setting process.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes, they store well and make great make-ahead treats.

Can I freeze them?

Yes, freeze in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Thaw at room temperature before serving.

What if the chocolate seizes?

Ensure the chocolate melts gently without overheating. Adding a small amount of vegetable oil can help smooth it out.

Can I use homemade marshmallow fluff?

Absolutely! Homemade fluff works great.

Can I dip only one side in chocolate?

Yes, for a lighter chocolate coating, dip one side only.

How do I prevent the marshmallow from oozing out?

Press the crackers gently to seal, and work quickly when dipping in chocolate to avoid melting the marshmallow.
