How to Make Caramel Peanut Ritz Cracker Treats

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and lay out Ritz crackers in a single layer.

In a saucepan, heat sweetened condensed milk, butter, and brown sugar over medium heat for 7-8 minutes, stirring frequently.

Lower the heat, then whisk in milk, vanilla, and peanuts. Cook for 2 more minutes until thickened, then remove from heat.

Spoon the caramel-peanut mixture onto each cracker using a cookie scoop.

Let the cookies cool completely, then store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh.

Notes

These treats were a hit at my son’s birthday party and disappeared quickly, so you might want to make extra!
