    The Guess Again Cookies recipe with the Secret Ingredient! I couldn't figure it out but rest assured these cookies are absolutely delish!
     
    Guess Again Cookies

    Once upon a time, my mother-in-law Pam challenged me to figure out what the secret ingredient was in her Guess Again Cookies. Well, I failed.

    The cookies were great and I had to eat several of them to try and find the secret ingredient but in the end, I could not figure it out.

    Can you believe the secret ingredient is Potato Chips? Yes you read that right. Potato Chips in a cookie. I can roll with that... I think.

    All kidding aside, these cookies are delish. The Potato Chips add a nice salty touch to these awesome cookies. I love crunchy cookies which is exactly what these cookies are.

    🥜 Nut Allergies

    This recipe may contain peanuts or other nuts and seeds as one of its ingredients. Please take the appropriate precautions.

    Chocolate lovers should check out the chocolate chip version of these cookies. Salty and Sweet cookies. What more can you ask for? For another great "salty" cookie recipe, give my Sea Salt Butterscotch Cookies a try. Yummy!

      At first I hesitated to make these cookies because I am not a fan of potato chips, but decided to give it a try. They turned out crunchy and very delicious. A keeper in my house.
