Potato Chip Cookies Recipe
Potato chips aren’t just use for dips or as an accompaniment to sandwiches. They can be used as a topping for casseroles or even added to salads to make crunch. Once a bag is opened, they go stale quickly, so it’s always nice to find a way to use them up. When my kids were small, we used to make cookies from a classic cookbook, Cookies for Kids, and recently when I had lots of potato chips on hand, I remembered that that cookbook had a recipe for Potato Chip Cookies. My kids loved them back in the day, so recently I used my leftover potato chips in those cookies. They were as good as I remembered, and they were a perfect addition to the cookie jar because they stay fresh for a long time.
These cookies are easy and taste good. In fact they only have 5 ingredients.
