UGLY CHIP COOKIES

Who doesn’t like chocolate chip cookies? And who doesn’t like potato chips?

No one we’d be caught with, that’s for sure. These kettle chip cookies combine the best of both worlds—classic gooey chocolate sweetness with a surprising salty crunch that—thanks to Uglies Sea Salt Kettle Chips—takes a classic recipe where few dare to go. Might want to plan for a second batch. Just sayin’.

Oh yea…and since our Sea Salt Kettle Chips are Vegan, you can substitute your favorite vegan ingredients to make these cookies 100% vegan-friendly!
