Reese Cup Ritz Cookies Recipe

4.9 from 67 reviews

These Reese Cup Ritz Cookies combine the salty crunch of Ritz crackers with the creamy sweetness of Reese Cup Thins, all coated in rich melting chocolate and topped with festive holiday sprinkles for a perfect holiday treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 24 Ritz crackers
  • 12 Reese Cup Thins (classic Reese cups are too big)

Chocolate Coating

  • 12 oz. high quality melting chocolate (about 2 cups)

Decoration

  • Holiday sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: Arrange 12 Ritz crackers on a parchment-lined baking tray. Place one Reese Cup Thin on top of each cracker to create the base of your cookie.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, gently melt the 12 ounces of high-quality melting chocolate until smooth and glossy, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
  3. Coat the Cookies: Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each Reese Cup-topped cracker into the melted chocolate. Ensure the Reese Cup and cracker are fully covered in chocolate for a smooth finish.
  4. Decorate: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle holiday sprinkles on top for festive decoration and added texture.
  5. Set and Chill: Place the coated cookies back on the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is completely set and hardened.
  6. Serve: Once set, carefully remove from the fridge and enjoy your delicious Reese Cup Ritz Cookies.

Notes

  • Classic Reese’s cups are too large; use Reese Cup Thins for the right size.
  • Use high-quality melting chocolate for a smooth and shiny finish.
  • Ensure the chocolate is fully melted but not overheated to avoid seizing.
  • Refrigerate cookies to speed up the chocolate setting process.
  • Store finished cookies in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
