1½ pkg. (4 oz. each) semi-sweet baking chocolate (6 oz.), melted
1 tube (4.25 oz.) decorating icing

Place 24 crackers, top sides down, in single layer on parchment-covered baking sheet.

Cover with remaining crackers, top sides up, to make 24 sandwiches. Gently press top crackers into peanut butter to secure.

Recipe Tips

Variation
Increase the chocolate to 2 (4-oz.) pkg. of chocolate. Instead of dipping the cracker sandwiches halfway into the melted chocolate, coat the sandwiches completely with the melted chocolate. Continue as directed. If desired, you can omit the icing used to decorate the cracker sandwiches.
Variation
Omit the decorating icing. Coat the cracker sandwiches with the melted chocolate as directed, then top evenly with 2 Tbsp. colored sprinkles in the color(s) of your favorite sports team.
Decorating Icing
You can decorate all the cracker sandwiches in 1 color of icing, or you can instead decorate them using the colors of your favorite sports team. If you can't find the 4.25-oz. tubes of icing, you can use about half of an 8-oz. or 9-oz. tube of cookie decorating icing. You will need to plan on using about 1/4 tsp. of icing for each cookie sandwich.
