Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using).
Microwave the chocolate mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring well between intervals, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat the chocolate.
Using tongs or your hands, dip each potato chip halfway into the melted chocolate, ensuring a good coating. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
Place the chocolate-dipped potato chips onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other.
Once all the chips are coated, transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and allow the chocolate to set for about 10-15 minutes, or until firm.
Remove the chips from the refrigerator and serve immediately, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
