Butterscotch Chips

Potato Chip Cookies

As I look through my grandmother’s recipe box, I realize that she saved far more dessert recipes than any other kind. I can relate! For years, I have cut out recipes and carefully taped them into notebooks by category. I have a notebook for main dishes, one for sides and one for drinks. Each of these is partially filled. Then I have two notebooks for desserts that are overflowing. No lie, I have loose cut out recipes tucked away in the back of each one. Perhaps it is time for another notebook? I clearly started this habit pre-Pinterest but I still enjoy flipping through those pages and seeing the “love” (okay, mess) and notes that I made on some of those recipes. You know it is a really good one if there are stains all over it!

So as to live up to my grandmother’s standards, I decided it was time to make another dessert. There are so many to choose from in that recipe box and eventually I hope to get to most of them – have no fear, I will not resort to the shrimp Jello recipe I found. I’ve been wanting something unique rather than classic lately so I’ve opted to update her recipe for potato chip cookies.  After a quick google search, I learned that this is more common than I thought (even Martha Stuart has a recipe for them!) but the butterscotch chips set this recipe apart from any other I’ve seen.

Tips:

  • If you’re not a fan of butterscotch, swap those chips out for chocolate.
  • I used plain ridged potato chips for this recipe. I placed them in a large zip lock bag and then rolled over them with a rolling pin until they were evenly crushed.
