Ok, Ashley asked me to make her these cookies for her birthday…I’ve never made them before, but hey, they turned out great.
Here is what you will need: Potato Chips, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, unsalted butter, pure vanilla extract and pecans.
Beat 1 cup unsalted butter and 1/2 cup granulated sugar on medium speed until creamy and well blended; about 5 minutes. Scrape the bowl as needed. Add 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract and beat again until well blended.
Add a scant two cups flour (1/2 pound or 8 ounces), 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans (2 ounces) and 1/2 cup finely crushed potato chips. Mix on low speed until just blended.
Shape heaping teaspoons of dough into 1-inch balls, arranging them 2 inches apart on baking sheets covered in parchment.
Put some sugar in a shallow bowl. Lightly grease the bottom of a glass or measuring cup with soft butter. Dip the glass into the sugar and press the glass down on a dough ball until it’s about 1/4-inch thick. Repeat dipping and pressing with the remaining balls.
Position oven racks in the middle and top of the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake until the cookies look dry on top and the edges are light golden, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating and swapping the positions of the sheets for even baking.
Let the cookies cool on the sheets on racks for 5 minutes before transferring them to racks to cool completely.
