Potato Chip Cookies

I know this recipe sounds like a double wammy, but I slimmed it down significantly - swapping out the butter for low-fat margarine and using low-fat potato chips. I love these sweet and salty treats!

Makes 2 dozen cookies

Ingredients

1 pound reduced fat, trans-fat free margarine, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
3 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups crushed low-fat potato chips
1 cup confectioner’s sugar

Directions

Preheat over to 300º F. Mix margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla and flour until completely incorporated. Fold in potato chips.

Drop a teaspoon of the batter onto ungreased cookie sheets. With a fork dipped in flour, flatten the top of each cookie slightly. Bake for 17-18 minutes or until cookies are lightly brown. Allow to cool on a wire rack, then sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar.
