Assemble cookie "sandwiches" by spreading peanut butter on the flat side of one Ritz cracker and capping it with another Ritz cracker.

Continue to make these "sandwiches," placing them in one layer on a flat tray or dish until you have the number of cookies you want.

Melt about half of the bag of white chocolate chips in a double boiler until smooth and creamy, or in a saucepan over low heat, stirring often.

Take one cookie "sandwich" at a time and dip it in the melted white chocolate, coating it entirely.

Remove the coated cookie to a flat plate or tray covered with waxed paper.

Let the tray of coated "sandwiches" sit at room temperature for the coating to harden, or speed it up by placing the tray in the freezer for 10 or 15 minutes.

Remove the coated "sandwiches" from the waxed paper on the tray to a serving dish.
