(These are the baked kind that disappear fast!)
Ritz Cracker Party Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1 box Ritz crackers
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef or sausage
- 1 packet dry onion soup mix
- 1–1½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Colby-Jack, or American work best)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Mix filling: In a bowl, combine meat and onion soup mix (do not cook first).
- Assemble:
- Place crackers flat-side up.
- Add about 1 teaspoon of meat mixture.
- Sprinkle with cheese.
- Top with another cracker and gently press.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes, until meat is cooked and crackers are golden.
- Drain briefly on paper towels if needed. Serve warm.
Tips & Variations
- Extra crispy: Bake on a wire rack over the pan.
- Spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne or use spicy sausage.
- Cheese-only version: Skip meat, mix cream cheese + shredded cheese, and bake 8–10 minutes.
- Make ahead: Assemble, refrigerate, then bake just before serving.
