Chocolate Champs No Bake Cookies
Hi, it’s Still Blonde’s resident baker, Alexzandra! I’m back with a wonderful treat for you. Chocolate Champs No Bake Cookies are a Big Game Party treat that’s hard to beat! Quick to make— no-bake! Easy to take-n’-go. Add some flair to your super-bowl party with this easy recipe that will make peanut butter and chocolate lovers craving to know how they are made.
A Family Favorite for Years!
My family has made this recipe for YEARS. My siblings and I talk all the time about when we were in elementary all the other students would grab these cookies first at school parties, because Chocolate Champs No Bake Cookies taste SO GOOD. No one else ever brought in a better treat for school events. My dad always helped us make these, with his contribution being to make sure all the ingredients were there because these cookies are SO EASY to make.
- 7 oz box of original Ritz Crackers
- 16 oz jar of smooth Peanut Butter ( I used Jiff)
- Two 12 oz packages of Hersey’s Milk Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup of Crisco (shortening)
- Optional: Decorative toppers or writing frosting
- Cover a cooking pan with aluminum foil, preferably a shallow cookie sheet.
- Frost a Ritz cracker evenly with peanut butter. Add another Ritz cracker on top to “sandwich” the peanut butter in-between
- Prepare the whole box of Ritz this way. You may use several pans. When a pan is completed, place in the fridge to cool
- Pour 2 packages of chocolate chips into a microwave safe bowl. Melt in microwave for 30 seconds, take out, and mix. Continue in 30 second increments until completely melted.
- Remove a tray of the prepared Ritz and peanut butter sandwiches from the fridge. Dip each sandwich one-by-one into your bowl of chocolate, completely covering the sandwich. Place back on tray to cool.
- If placing decorative toppers onto cookies, place when chocolate is still slightly melted. This will make sure they stay in place. If writing on cookies, wait until they are chilled to avoid smearing.
- Put tray back into fridge to chill.
- Once chilled, cookies are ready to eat! When the cookies are chilled, they are simple to pop into a to-go container or onto a serving tray.
This is a great recipe to make for any event, and a nice way to bring the whole family together through baking. As you can imagine, you can vary the chocolate (white, fancy colors), the insides of the sandwich, and the toppings. Let your imagination run wild.

Big Game Day is here…well, today’s the Super Bowl! These would be great. A nice sweet snack to go with your chips and wings. It’s also Chocolate Fondue Day, and these use melted chocolate which I think counts. 🙂 I know we will be watching. My family really enjoys football. Where did you get those cute toppers?
Oh I bet these taste yummy, like the old commercial used to say, “everything is better when it sits on a Ritz!”
My mouth is watering. These look so yummy. I am getting ready for the big game this weekend, and these would be so much fun.
Those look fairly easy and tasty. It is hard to go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate and the buttery taste of Ritz crackers.
My son and my wife would like these treats. They both like chocolate and peanut butter together, but I don’t like them together at all.
I love your comment about your dad’s contribution….if I had left that up to my father, the dessert would never get made, because he’d never be able to find the items in the store! (He’s good at a lot of things, but food shopping is NOT one of them!)
These look so cute & seem like they’ll be easy to make! I’ll try this out 🙂
Those look so good as I’m on my way to Superbowl eating
These are so darn cute and look yummy, too. Best of all easy peasy and make you want to go “rah rah rah!” I want to try this!
These look so good and easy. After food and drinking beverages everybody wants a little dessert. These would be nice. I am not sure if I would have enough energy to bake after I prepare all the food the Super Bowl party.
