Get ready to indulge in the ultimate sweet-meets-salty treat with these irresistible Potato Chip Cookies! Perfectly crisp around the edges and delightfully chewy in the center, these cookies deliver a surprising and satisfying crunch thanks to crushed potato chips folded into the buttery dough.

Easy to prepare in under 30 minutes, these unique cookies are a fun twist on classic flavors, making them a guaranteed hit at parties, bake sales, or with a tall glass of milk. Whether you're a fan of unexpected dessert combinations or simply on the hunt for a crowd-pleasing recipe, these potato chip cookies are sure to amaze and delight.
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add in the vanilla extract and the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the crushed potato chips and, if using, the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers still look slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these sweet and salty potato chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
