These Potato Chip Cookies are an easy cookie recipe that is the perfect combination of salty and sweet!
As I mentioned in a previous post, I hosted a holiday cookie exchange again this year. I love cookies exchanges because it’s a great way to get together with friends over the holidays while trying all sorts of new cookies! Plus, the recipe hoarder in me loves to collect all of the new recipes for said cookies!
This year, my mother brought these AWESOME Potato Chip Cookies to the party! It sounds weird, I know. But, trust me, you HAVE to try these!
These cookies were so good! The perfect combination of salty and sweet! And, they just melt in your mouth. I’ve found that go very well with a nice, hot cup of tea! My mother put festive holiday sprinkles on top of hers before she baked them. It’s a fun way to jazz them up for any occasion — not just the holidays!

I have one silly question, is it 1 cup of potatoe chips crushed or 1 cup of crushed potato chips, the former doesn’t seem like it would be that much in the recipe!
Thanks

I have been making potato chip cookies for about 20 years. They are a huge favorite on my Christmas cookie trays! I always see if people can guess the secret ingrediant – very few can.
