How to Make Chocolate Chip Potato Chip Cookie Bars

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Georgetown chapter.

So maybe you don’t have to be in a drunken hangry stupor to enjoy these, but if you are, it might just take these cookie bars from the amazing to the epic. While you may be super skeptical, I promise this combination of kettle cooked potato chips and America’s favorite chocolate chip cookie is out of this world. Lindsay Lohan thought she was so crazy putting peanut butter on Oreos back in ’98, but that seems like child’s play compared to these babies (and compared to her DUIs and rehab…but that’s besides the point.)
