Potato Chip Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is another thing I made yesterday that I don't have a picture of yet. I was very intrigued by putting chips into a cookie, let alone Salt and Vinegar Chips, but I was willing to do it since this is the year of trying new things! I got this recipe over at Vanilla Kitchen and let me tell you, it is fabulous. I opened the chips and we all hated them, but in the cookies, they can't even really be tasted except for the crunch of the chips.

Potato Chip Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup butter softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 cup crushed(not too fine) salt and vinegar potato chips, I used Kettle brand
1 cup mini chocolate chips

In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix well.

In a separate bowl, combine butter and sugars at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla. Gradually add in flour mixture and combine well.

Stir in the potato chips and chocolate chips by hand.

Place in fridge to chill for an hour.

Once dough is nice and chilled, use a mini scooper or your hands to form 1" balls. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, 2" apart--they will spread when baking.

Bake 14-18 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool completely on baking sheet.

Makes 2 dozen.
