My kids have been a bit overloaded in the sweets department over the past 2 weeks. Tonight I am in charge of dessert at a family gathering, so the kids and I made dark chocolate dipped peanut butter graham crackers. These small, not-too-sweet-treats are perfect for little fingers. Remember that graham crackers and peanut butter often have hydrogenated/trans fat in them so opt for a brand that is free from this fat. Here are the brands I used:

• Peanut Butter & Co. Smooth Operator Peanut Butter
• Whole Foods’ 365 Cinnamon Graham Crackers
• Hershey’s Special Dark Chocolate Chips
• Pompeian Extra Light Tasting Virgin Olive Oil
• Sprinkles (available without trans fat and artificial colors in the organic/all-natural section)

Place about 1/2 -2/3 cup chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of oil into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments until melted completely. Break about 6-8 full graham crackers into quarter sections. Spread one quarter section with peanut butter and top with another quarter. Dip one end into the melted chocolate and lay on wax paper. Top with sprinkles. Once all are completed, place in fridge until ready to serve and eat.
