Chocolate-Covered Potato Chip Cookies

DSC_0850x900Potato chips are a big deal in my family, as we used to own and operate a potato chip factory. I’ve been surrounded by chips since I came out of the womb. While the factory has been closed for twenty plus years, I still love potato chips. LOVE THEM. I’ve featured potato chip cookies twice on this blog — here and here. I’ve also professed my love for chocolate-covered potato chips. Seriously — try them! The combination of salty + sweet is great.

Today’s cookies combine chocolate chip cookies and chocolate-covered potato chips — and to give you an indication of how good they were, they disappeared from the office by 9:30am!

PS: It’s my Dad’s birthday today — and I know he reads my blog religiously. Happy Birthday, Dad! I love you!

4. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. [I chilled mine for 2 hours]
5. Preheat oven to 350F when ready to bake.
6. Use a cookie scoop to place balls of dough onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet. My balls of dough were about 1-1/2 Tablespoons in size.
