"These cookies are tender, crisp, buttery lusciousness. I've made some other cookies that incorporated potato chips, but I think these score big. For those of you who've never tried cookies with potato chips as one of the ingredients you're missing out. It gives them a "Je ne sais quoi" goodness. They are ever so easy to make as well. All my guests loved them when I served them last Christmas."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Lightly grease or parchment line a cookie sheet.

Step 2

In a bowl, combine the flour and the crushed potato chips, set aside.

Step 3

In another bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and vanilla.

Step 4

Incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter and sugar mixture until just combined.

Step 5

Using a teaspoon, scoop out the dough and roll into a ball with your hands.

Step 6

Roll the balls into granulated sugar. Place prepared cookie sheet. Press each ball down lightly with your fingers.

Step 7

Bake for 12 minutes or until the edges are nice and golden. Store in airtight container.

Step 8

NOTE: If you taste the cookie dough before baking, don't be alarmed if it doesn't taste sweet or good enough. You'll be surprised how good they turn out once rolled in sugar and baked. They are yummy.

These cookies are so tasty and they turned out beautifully. I may not have crushed up the chips as much as I should have, but I like the texture just the way it is. These cookies have been tested on hubby and he gave a thumbs up -- so I know the grandkiddos will love them on the cookie tray I made them. : )

Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe FEM. These cookies were perfect. Amazing texture and flavor. They were so easy to make and with ingredients always found in the pantry. A scary prospect. I can see these often in my future. They were a great addition to the Christmas platters this year. Made FYC tag game.
