These RItz cracker moon pies are SOOO good!

So if you’ve made that marshmallow fluff “maybe” you have some left over (??).

My love for Ritz crackers is well-documented on these pages (see here here here and here), and these little sandwiches are YUM.

The recipe below is based on the amount of fluff I had left over; adjust accordingly based on how much fluff YOU have. And feel free to swap the white chocolate for dark or milk, as you do. You know I’m team “Vanilla”, and the white coating was also the perfect backdrop for this pretty Himalyan Pink Salt that was in my care package from FreshJax (and remember, you get 15% off your FreshJax purchase when you enter code sherisilver at check-out!).

What’s your favorite way to use marshmallow fluff?

Ritz Cracker Moon Pies l sherisilver.com

Moon Pies

24 Ritz crackers
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup confectioner’s sugar
1/2 cup marshmallow fluff
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
6 ounces (1 cup) white chocolate chips
Himalayan pink salt (or flaky sea salt), optional

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; place 12 of the crackers face down on the sheet.

Beat butter, sugar, fluff and vanilla till light and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag or ziploc bag and snip an opening in the corner. Pipe a dollop onto the crackers that are on your baking sheet, and top with the remaining half. Chill for at least 2 hours.

Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Working with one sandwich at a time, place on a fork and dip into the melted chocolate. Tap the fork handle on the edge of the bowl to level the chocolate and allow any excess to drip off. Return to your baking sheet and top with a bit of salt, if using. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Chill for 30 minutes; store in an airtight container in the fridge till ready to serve.

    Thanks for sharing! Does it keep long?

      I’m embarrassed to share that they never last long enough to find out! 🙂 That said, I would imagine that after time the crackers would start to soften but I’m sure they are still delicious!

    I made these using the homemade marshmallow cream recipe provided. I found them to be extremely sweet. If I make them again I will not add the powdered sugar to the already sweet marshmallow cream.

      It’s so hard to know what’s “too sweet” for some and “just right” for others! I haven’t made these in a long time but I believe that I added the sugar to stiffen up the fluff so that it would hold its shape in the sandwiches. Let me know if it works well with your version and I’ll add that note to the recipe!
