Cookie Thursday 10/9/2025- Potato Chip Cookie

I think this would be better off in the Inception Cookie theme. After all, a potato chip is, in and of itself, perfect. But also fried and complete and can be eaten as is.

But this recipe was in my Halloween cookie space so it is a Halloween Cookie. Thanks, past me.

This is the second make where I used one egg and 1 egg yolk. The cookies definitely didn’t spread as much as they normally would. Is that a win?

I bought the potato chips from Aldi because potato chips isn’t something normally found in our pantry. No reason, we just don’t eat them fast enough. And also it is one of most unhealthy snacks there is. Of course, I knocked together a blue cheese dip to attempt to finish off the bag. Or I might make a bacon horseradish dip instead.

I roughly crushed half of the bag and added it to the cookie dough, along with milk chocolate chips. I used the chocolate chips because the dough was looking a little pale. I used the last of my milk chocolate chips because why not?

Into the pre-heated oven they went.

I am not sure if it is a function of the oil from the potato chips but these browned quickly as they baked. I cut back on the baking time for the next batch, same result. Solid cookie though. A bit sweet, a bit salty.

Curious that they browned so quickly.

The potato chip cookie doesn’t really match the Something Spooky This Way Comes theme but *shrugs*. It was in the Halloween Cookie folder so I made it.

And also because potatoes are the perfect food. Regardless of the style of make. I have to rethink my rare CTIAT failure, the BBQ potato chip cookie. But that is for another week.
