Use hands to mix dough well.
Scoop dough onto parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
For larger cookies, use larger mounds of dough. (I made large and medium cookies. For the large cookies I scooped 1/3 cup of dough onto parchment paper. For the medium cookies I used a cookie scoop.)
Place dough in freezer for 25 minutes or until firm.
Then place in oven for 13 – 14 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool.
Repeat until all dough is used.

Saltine Crackers
Peanut Butter
Melting Chocolate ( or Chocolate Chips any flavor)


Directions
Cover a saltine cracker with peanut butter and place another saltine on top to make a peanut butter cracker sandwich.
Make as many peanut butter cracker sandwiches as you want.

Melt chocolate (Melt as much chocolate as you need. You can always melt more if you run out).
Remove crackers from freezer.
Dip in melted chocolate. Be sure to cover all sides. Place on parchment paper and continue until all crackers are covered.
The ones dipped in white chocolate I sprinkled with red and green sugar sprinkles.
The ones dipped in milk chocolate I sprinkled with salt to get a good sweet and salty taste.

These are great to share at Christmas!
