1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

3 garlic cloves, finely minced

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1/4 teaspoon salt (optional, to taste)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Garlic Butter: In a bowl, stir together the melted butter, minced garlic, and salt if using.
  3. Arrange Crackers: Spread the Ritz crackers evenly in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
  4. Brush Generously: Use a basting brush to coat each cracker with the garlic butter mixture.
  5. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle each cracker with grated Parmesan.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and melty. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  7. Garnish & Serve: Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with chopped parsley. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes
