A Ritz Like No Other


There is the Ritz, and then there is........the Ritz...............crackers that is.  And aside from the millions of wonderful appetizers and the famous Mock Apple Pie that these noble crackers are known for, they also make a  sweet and savory confectionary treat that is truly outstanding.  This creation, which was inspired by the Amateur Gourmet, uses only 4 ingredients and is very simple to prepare.  Simply take two Ritz crackers, spread one with peanut butter and make into a sandwich. Put these sandwiches on a try and place them in the freezer for half an hour. Melt down some butterscotch or other flavored chips, and then dunk the sandwiches thoroughly, making sure to cover them completely. Set these aside on cooling racks to firm up. When these are completely set up, decorate them by drizzling melted chocolate over them, or another melted coating of your choice.  Feel free to try several different types of chocolate or coatings, and try adding a little jelly with the peanut butter for a different flavor treat.
