Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Take one Ritz cracker and generously spread a layer of dulce de leche on top, then place another Ritz cracker on top to form a sandwich.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and dark chocolate melting wafers. Heat the mixture, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
  4. Carefully dip each cracker sandwich into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated.
