Ingredients
Cookies
- 16 tablespoons unsalted butter softened and at room temperature (2 sticks)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¾ cup potato chips crushed
- ½ cup fresh cranberries chopped
- ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
Chocolate Drizzle
- ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat. Set aside.
- Using a food processor, chop the cranberries, and set aside.
- Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar together until smooth.
- Add the flour and vanilla extract, mixing until batter has just come together.
- Using a plastic spatula, stir in the crushed potato chips, chopped cranberries and semisweet chocolate chips.
- Once mixed, drop the batter onto the prepared cookie sheet with a spoon.
- Using a fork, make criss-cross patterns on top of the cookies to flatten them before baking. (Pro tip: Dip the fork tines in ice water before and after each cookie to prevent sticking.)
- Transfer the cookies to the oven, and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- When the cookies have cooked through, remove from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack after 10 minutes. (Waiting some minutes before transferring them to the cooling rack will ensure they don’t fall apart once moved.)
- Once the cookies have cooled completely, heat the additional chocolate chips and butter together in a microwave-safe bowl. Transfer to a pastry bag (or a plastic bag). Snip the tip, and drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cookies.
- Enjoy with a glass of milk!

Notes
- If you're not partial to semisweet chocolate and would like something sweeter, simply substitute milk chocolate chips in the recipe. :)
