What to do with the worst flavor of Lays Chips ever........

By now everyone knows about the finalist for the new flavor of Lays. Well one of them is the Cappuccino Chip.

I have to say, by themselves they are Awful! But put into a sugar cookie mix,they taste like  cappuccino.

From what you can see in the pictures, these cookies were simple to put together. I did try the chips by themselves, and honestly they tasted like a raw potato chip with no flavoring, and cappuccino powder dumped over it. But when they got added to the sugar cookie dough, they tasted like they were supposed to, which was a cappuccino.

Here is the recipe I came up with for these chips:

Cappuccino Chip Cookies:

3/4 bag Lays Cappuccino Chips-pummeled into submission in a gallon freezer bag to almost dust.

1 stick Lactose Free Blue Bonnet

1 pouch(large) Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix

1 egg

Equipment:

Mixing Bowl
Cookie Sheets
Small cookie scoop
Knife
Spatula
Pam

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
While your oven is preheating, in your mixing bowl combine your pummeled chips, Lactose Free Blue Bonnet, Cookie Mix, and egg, until well combined.(If you have to use your hands to mix it up, only use one, it can be done.)

Spray you cookie sheets with Pam, it is a little extra insurance that the cookies come off.

With your small cookie scoop and knife, scoop and level your cookie dough onto your cookie sheets until filled.

Bake 7-10 minutes, or until golden brown, you may have to adjust the time depending on where you are.

They smell awesome & taste great just out of the oven and warm. Serve with your favorite beverage and Enjoy!

Welcome!

Welcome to the newest of my blogs, O.K. Creatively Twisted Vintage Baking,Cooking, and Candy Making. (Which Means Oklahoma and Kentucky Creatively Twisted Vintage Baking, Cooking, and Candy Making.)

This Blog is going to be mainly focused on my kitchen and what I do in it.  As a lot of you may know I am an avid competitor in the Great State Fair of Oklahoma.

Well everyone has asked me over the years how do I come up with the recipes I do. I can safely say I am on the "Creatively Twisted " side when it comes to creating the recipes I do for competition.

I have so many cookbooks right now, that I can sit down and go through them, and take pieces here and there from one recipe or another, and come up with a new recipe to try on family and friends, and if they like it, it goes into the possible section for later use.

I even take some vintage recipes I have found from clippings in the paper, or from friends& family, and I try to find a way to redo them, with a few short cuts sometimes. ( In this day and age who could not use a short cut in this Go-Go-Go society. In the end it is a real blessing when you are making stuff on the fly.)

I hope you will enjoy the postings over time, once I get them going, and you will begin to find your own creatively twisted way around your kitchen and recipes. Who knows something you create now, could become a favorite later.

May these tulips brighten your day. (They are from the sample pics on my computer)
