Description
A deliciously cheesy and crunchy snack made with Ritz Bits and seasoned butter.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boxes cheese Ritz Bits (8 oz each)
- ¾ cup butter (melted)
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ⅔ cup grated Parmesan
- finely chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and line two 9×13 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper (or one extra-large sheet pan).
- If some Ritz Bits have separated, gently press them back into sandwiches so the cheese is tucked safely inside, so any exposed cheese doesn’t burn. Pour crackers into a large mixing bowl.
- In a medium spouted measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the melted butter and seasonings. Pour over the crackers and toss to coat.
- Sprinkle the parmesan over the top and toss to coat again.
- Divide the buttered crackers evenly between the prepared baking sheets and spread in a single layer (it’s fine if some overlap).
- Bake 7-9 minutes until golden brown.
- Garnish with just a bit of fresh chopped parsley.
- Allow to cool completely before eating. They will crisp up and get crunchy as they cool.
Notes
- This snack is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
- Feel free to adjust seasonings to your taste!
