This recipe was even BETTER than the seasoned ranch oyster cracker recipe we had been using. Why? Because I am adding an additional layer of flavor by using a cheese it in place of the oyster cracker. They added one more layer of cheese goodness to the flavors we had already become addicted. The amazing flavors in this snack cracker will keep you coming back for more.

Homemade Seasoned Ranch Cheese Crackers

The conception of this recipe started in college with the traditional homemade seasoned ranch crackers. But as most recipes created, this one was also created by mistake. We were out of the oyster crackers but only had cheese crackers in the house. Being in college, we figured…what could go wrong!?

Nothing went wrong! Everything went right!

Birth Control Cracker: The explanation

After much discussion it was decided that these new crackers were going to be called Birth Control crackers. What?! Why?

Because after your eat them, your breath is so pungent with the layers of dill, garlic and cheese cracker that NO one is getting any lovin’. Birth control. We all had a good laugh about it know that these crackers were not a true form of contraception but just a silly way of referring to our new favorite homemade snack food.

How do you store these ranch crackers?

I will store these ranch crackers in a gallon zip top bag but any airtight container will work. You want to be sure to keep the humidity out of these crackers so that they do not go stale.
