Chow Still Hungry?

Posted by on Thu, Dec 25, 2008 at 6:40 PM

cookies.jpgOr just bored? Let me suggest my aunt Astri's Potato Chip Cookies:

3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
3/4 cup finely crushed potato chips
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped pecans (or cashews or walnuts)

Cream the butter and sugar, then add the egg yolk and vanilla.
Mix in flour, potato chips, and nuts.
Roll into small "walnut-sized" balls, then roll in granulated sugar. Flatten each ball with the bottom of a glass.

Bake 12 mins at 350 (or 9 mins on a non-stick sheet).

Happy holiday times!

they are really really good. buttery and sweet, and the potato chips make them crunchy and salty. hope your day gets better!

I bet they're fantastic.
I don't have any potato chips though. I wonder if blue corn chips would work...

This explains maybe 1% of Lindy's unique brand of Adorable Wackiness... what about the other 99%?

My Grandmother (RIP) used to make these - they were fantastic. Lindy, you should try bacon chocolate chip cookies. Mostly they're fun to shock people, but they're also yummy.
