If you like a sweet-and-salty treat, this cookie is perfect! They quickly bake to a crispy, golden brown...and they disappear even faster! —Monna Lu Bauer, Lexington, Kentucky

I agree that it was tough to taste the potato chips so I added some more and a little bit less of the butterscotch chips.

These cookies were disappointing. I couldn't taste the potato chips, only the butterscotch chips. Nothing special, just Tollhouse cookie dough with butterscotch chips and unremarkable potato chips.

 I love trying new recipes, and this was one of the best ones.  They are crunchy and just like my family likes them.

Since we love butterscotch chips, I added the whole 11 oz. package. Plus I used ridged potato chips for a different texture. Delicious!!

sounds as if they would be good, can you just add potato chips to any recipe?

Not what I expected either, rather disappointing. Not much flavor, I wouldn't recommend them. I liked the idea of the potato chips in a cookie though, I may try adding them to my own butterscotch chip cookie recipe instead.

Not what I expected, but still liked them. Not so much salty flavor, and they're crunchy, not soft & gooey like I like my cookies.
