The perfect sweet and salty cookie. Semi-sweet chocolate chips and crunchy wavy potato chips come together for no-chill cookies in the levain style (crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside).

Ingredients

Scale

14 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter – melted and cooled slightly

3 cups All-Purpose Flour* – spooned and leveled

1 teaspoon Baking Soda

1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder

1 teaspoon Kosher Salt

1 cup Brown Sugar – packed

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 Large Eggs

1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract

1 1/2 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips

1 1/2 cup Roughly Crushed Potato Chips – I prefer the wavy variety, or something similarly sturdy

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter (14 Tablespoons) in 30-second increments until almost entirely melted, then give it a stir to melt the final pieces. Set aside to cool.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour (3 cups – spooned and leveled, see note), baking soda (1 teaspoon), baking powder (1/2 teaspoon), and kosher salt (1 teaspoon) until thoroughly combined – about 1 minutes.
    These are your dry ingredients.
  4. In a separate, medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar (1 cup), granulated sugar (3/4 cup), eggs (2), and vanilla extract (1 Tablespoon) until combined and there are no egg streaks.
    These are your wet ingredients.
  5. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and then gently stir everything together with a stiff spatula or wooden spoon until no dry patches remain.
  6. Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips (1.5 cup) and roughly crushed potato chips (1.5 cup) to the dough and fold into the dough until everything is combined.
  7. Scoop the dough with a large cookie scoop (or 1/4 cup measuring cup, just roll the dough into a ball after scooping) and place dough balls on a baking sheet, about two inches apart from one another.
    The dough is easiest to scoop when it’s fresh and hasn’t had a chance to sit, so allow extra scoops to wait on a plate or baking sheet while they’re waiting to go into the oven.
  8. Bake for 13-16 minutes or until the outsides are browned and crispy and the insides are just barely set (there should be the slightest resistance when you tap the top of the cookie).
  9. Allow to cool on the tray and best enjoyed when they’re still a little warm.

Extras can be stored covered at room temperature or in the freezer – just allow to cool completely before freezing and thaw before enjoying.

Notes

For the most consistent results, make sure you’re measuring out your flour using the following method: give the flour a stir with a spoon or whisk, then spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level the top with the flat spine of a knife or the handle of the spoon.
