1. Assemble the peanut butter patties

• Lay out half of the Ritz crackers flat side up on a tray.
• Spoon about 1–1½ tsp of peanut butter onto each cracker and spread gently.
• Top with another cracker to form a sandwich, pressing lightly to secure.
• Place patties in the fridge for 10–15 minutes to firm up.

2. Melt the chocolate

• In a heatproof bowl, melt chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
• If desired, add 1 tsp oil (coconut or sunflower) to thin the chocolate for easier coating.

3. Coat the patties

• Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each patty into the melted chocolate, coating completely.
• Let excess chocolate drip off, then place on a parchment-lined tray.
• Repeat until all patties are coated.

4. Decorate while wet

• Immediately decorate with sprinkles, candy eggs, or Easter-themed toppings before the chocolate sets.
• If desired, drizzle with tinted white chocolate for added color and design.

5. Chill to set

• Refrigerate patties for 15–30 minutes or until chocolate is fully hardened.
• Once set, transfer to an airtight container or serve directly.
