Introduction

Chocolate covered graham crackers are a delightful treat that combines the crunchy, honey-flavored cracker with smooth, rich chocolate. This simple recipe is perfect for quick snacks or festive gatherings, and can be easily customized with decorative drizzles and sprinkles.

A stack of five rectangular chocolate-covered biscuits sits on a white marbled surface, each biscuit coated in smooth dark chocolate with thin white icing drizzled in wavy lines across the top. The top biscuit is broken in half, revealing a crunchy golden layer inside surrounded by the chocolate coating. The biscuits are neatly stacked, with the layers showing the contrast between the dark chocolate outside and the light, textured biscuit inside. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

16 ounces chocolate almond bark
8 honey graham crackers broken in half (you will get 16 – 2½ x 2-inch squares)
4 ounces vanilla almond bark
Holiday sprinkles (optional garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, and set aside.
Step 2: In a microwave-safe bowl (or the tray that comes with your almond bark if it is microwave safe), add the chocolate almond bark and microwave on high for one minute. Stir, then continue to heat in 30-second intervals stirring each time, until the chocolate almond bark is fully melted and smooth.
Step 3: Dip one (2½ x 2-inch) graham cracker into the melted chocolate. Flip it over to coat both sides.
Step 4: Using a large fork, gently lift the chocolate-covered graham cracker out of the chocolate and place it onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat until all the graham crackers have been coated. You can use a second fork to gently push the coated graham cracker off the fork used for dipping and onto the parchment paper.
Step 5: Allow the chocolate-covered graham crackers to sit on the counter for 15 minutes to harden the chocolate.
Step 6: While the chocolate-covered graham crackers are setting, melt your vanilla almond bark in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Stir and heat again for another 30 seconds or until fully melted and smooth.
Step 7: Using a large spoon, drizzle the melted vanilla almond bark decoratively over the chocolate-covered graham crackers.
Step 8: While the vanilla almond bark is still soft, sprinkle on the optional holiday sprinkles for added decoration.
Step 9: Allow the vanilla almond bark to set for an additional 5 minutes before transferring the chocolate-covered graham crackers onto a serving tray or into a storage container.
Step 10: Store these chocolate-covered graham crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Tips & Variations

For a festive touch, try using colored almond bark or add crushed peppermint candies instead of sprinkles.
If you prefer darker chocolate, substitute semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips for the chocolate almond bark.
Use a double fork technique to avoid smudging the coating while transferring the crackers.
Allow the coated crackers to fully set in a cool, dry place to prevent melting or stickiness.

Storage

Store the chocolate-covered graham crackers in an airtight container at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and humidity. They will keep fresh for up to one week. If the kitchen is warm, you can refrigerate them, but bring them back to room temperature before serving to avoid condensation on the chocolate. No reheating is necessary.

How to Serve

A stack of five rectangular chocolate-coated crackers sits on a piece of parchment paper over a white marbled surface, each cracker coated in a smooth layer of dark chocolate and decorated with thin white chocolate zigzag lines on top. The top cracker is broken in half, revealing a light tan, crispy layered inside with a crunchy texture. The stack shows the thickness of each chocolate layer evenly covering the crunchy cracker base, and a corner of a white box is partly visible in the bottom left corner of the image.

FAQs

Can I use regular chocolate instead of almond bark?

Yes, you can use regular chocolate chips or bars, but almond bark melts smoothly and sets quickly, making the process easier for coating. If using regular chocolate, you may want to add a small amount of vegetable shortening to thin the chocolate for easier dipping.

What can I use if I don’t have graham crackers?

You can substitute with other sturdy cookies like digestive biscuits, animal crackers, or even pretzel rectangles for a salty-sweet combination. Just ensure they hold up well when dipped in melted chocolate.
