My husband and I went out of town a few weeks ago while my wonderful parents stayed with the kids. Not only did we come back to 2 happy little kiddos, but also a freezer full of banana bread (my mom’s specialty) and a huge container of these cookies. That huge container didn’t last long. Seriously, these cookies should come with a warning. Just like potato chips themselves, I bet you can’t stop with just one. They remind me of Danish wedding cookies, shortbread covered in powdered sugar, but slightly lighter and with a tiny crunch. If you don’t tell people that you’ve thrown in potato chips, I doubt anyone would figure out just what gives this cookie its extra special element. These would be the perfect treat to bring to a party or barbecue. Just don’t keep them around the house because they are dangerously addicting! Thanks mom for this amazing recipe!

Potato chip cookies are one of my favorite treats. My mother in law always made them. Then I tried my hand at them, and dunked them in chocolate. OMG.
