Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 5 oz Kettle Brand Sweet & Salty Potato Chips, crushed
For the Buttercream:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1–2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F degrees.
- In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment, cream butter. Scrape down sides of the bowl and add both sugars. Cream for 3-4 minutes.
- Add egg and vanilla and continue to mix.
- Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and stir until just combined. Add the peanut butter and mix until well combined.
- Place the crushed potato chip crumbs onto a plate or in a shallow bowl.
- Roll the dough into heaping tablespoon sized balls roll in the potato chips until well coated.
- Place balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone baking mat (you will have to use two baking sheets).
- Place into the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minute or until cookies have spread and baked through.
- Allow cookies to cool completely before sandwiching with the honey buttercream.
- To make the buttercream, place all ingredients into a small bowl and use a hand mixer to combine everything until smooth and desired consistency is reached. You might need to add a bit of powdered sugar to thicken it up.
- Frost the bottom sides of two cookies and sandwich them together. I used a heaping tablespoon or so of frosting for each sandwich cookie.
Notes
These are best eaten with a few days of being made. Store in fridge until ready to serve. If you want to make them ahead, wait to frost the cookies until just before serving.
