Chocolate Dipped Graham Crackers

Here’s a simple and delicious recipe to make Chocolate Dipped Graham Crackers:

Ingredients:

• 1 pack of Graham crackers (about 9-12 crackers)

• 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips (or milk chocolate if you prefer)

• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)

• Sprinkles, crushed nuts, or sea salt (optional, for topping)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the chocolate:

   • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. You can also melt the chocolate using a double boiler method on the stove if you prefer.

   • (Optional) Stir in the vanilla extract for a deeper flavor.

2. Prepare the graham crackers:

   • Break the graham crackers into halves or quarters, depending on your preferred size for dipping.

3. Dip the crackers:

   • Hold each piece of graham cracker and dip it into the melted chocolate. You can dip it halfway or fully, depending on how much chocolate you want to cover the cracker.

   • Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the cracker on a sheet of parchment paper.

4. Add toppings (optional):

   • While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle your choice of toppings—crushed nuts, colorful sprinkles, or a pinch of sea salt. Get creative!

5. Let them set:

   • Once all the crackers are dipped and topped, place the parchment paper in the fridge for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set.

6. Enjoy:

   • Once the chocolate has hardened, you can store the graham crackers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for longer shelf life.

Variations:

• White chocolate: Swap out the semi-sweet chocolate for white chocolate chips for a different flavor.

• Peanut butter: Spread a thin layer of peanut butter on the graham cracker before dipping it in chocolate.

• Mint chocolate: Add a few drops of mint extract to your melted chocolate for a refreshing twist.
