Ranch Cheese Crackers

Posted on November 21, 2013 by Parrish

As the holidays approach there are parties to attend, guests to feed, meals to prepare, visitors popping by and everything in between so it is always nice to have a quick snack on hand.

These Ranch Cheese Crackers are the perfect solution. Just a few ingredients and a night in the fridge and you will always have a delicious snack on hand for whatever pops up.

On top of being an amazing snack to take to parties, serve to guests or put out before a big holiday meal, these crackers also make a lovely gift. Just pop them into a mason jar, put a bow on top and you have a lovely gift ready in no time.

I used Ritz Bits Cheese Crackers in this recipe but you can expand and mix your crackers, add in goldfish, cheez-its, pretzels, oyster crackers, you could even throw some nuts into the mix.

With the busy holiday season coming up I suggest even doubling this recipe because it is always a huge hit!

So next time your’e at the store pick up the ingredients and make a batch, I promise you will be glad you did when holiday guests start knocking at your door!
