Potato Chip Cookies (This recipe makes 4 dozen cookies)

Ingredients

2 cups (4 sticks) butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

3 ¼ cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 ½ cups coarsely crushed potato chips (I used Ruffles)

Directions

Preheat oven to 300 degrees

In a large bowl cream the butter and sugar. Add the vanilla and then the flour, mixing until well blended. Stir in the potato chips and mix well. (If you want to try it with chocolate chips then you would stir them in at this point)

Drop by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet. (No need to grease it, but I used parchment, I always use parchment). Using a fork flatten each cookie a little (I didn't actually do this part and they turned out great). Bake 20 – 22 minutes or until light golden brown around the edges. Let stand 5 minutes then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
