Potato Chip Cookies
adapted from Taste of Home “Best Summer Desserts”

1 cup butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups crushed potato chips
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs. Combine the flour and baking soda and slowly add to the creamed sugars. Mix well. Stir in the potato chips and chocolate chips.

Drop by small spoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack.


I try to use plain (salt) thick cut crinkle cut. As I find these give the best texture at the end. Usually its the cheapest pack on the shelf at Aldi. I also use White Choc Chips now. As i like the flavour more.

The problem I have the most is getting the mixture right to not make them go all flat and smooshy and to retain there shape as cookies. But I think thats just my inexperience and probably my ovens too hot.
