Oh my gosh, it’s cold out this morning! But I’ve got to get to the store. We’re putting up the Christmas tree this weekend, and my daughter wants to make potato chip cookies.

Never had them before? It’s a recipe I got back in the 70s. My daughter loves them, and I bet you will too!

Potato Chip Cookies

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup light brown sugar- packed

1 cup white sugar

2 eggs

1/3 cup chopped nuts (optional)

1 -6oz. pkg. semisweet chocolate pieces

2 cups crushed potato chips

2 cups flour mixed with 1 teas. baking soda

Beat butter, sugars and eggs until well blended in

large bowl.

Stir in the rest of the ingredients and mix until well

blended.

Shape into 3/4 inch balls. (if dough is too stickly,

refrigerate for about 1/2 hour)

Place 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheet.

Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 10 – 12 minutes,

until lightly browned.

Cool for about a minute, then remove to wire racks to

continue cooling. Cool completely.

Makes about 84.

Store in airtight container in cool dry place for

up to 2 weeks.
