Ingredients

  • 1 bag wavy crispy potato chips
  • 1 bag dark chocolate melting wafers I stand by the Ghiradelli brand
  • 1/4 bag white chocolate melting wafers if you're feeling drizzly and fancy

Instructions

  • Dump the potato chips out on a layer of paper towels. You can be persnickety and only use the whole chips or embrace the process and use every last one you can dip :)
  • Melt the dark chocolate. I prefer a glass measuring bowl in the microwave.. 1 minute... stir.. 30 seconds.. stir.. 15 seconds... stir... 10 seconds.. repeat until glossy and melted You can do a double boiler method if you're not comfortable with microwaving. Ghirardelli is high quality so I rarely have issues with the microwave method.
  • Have a surface prepared with wax or parchment paper. Grab a chip and light dip it in the melted chocolate with a dip and swoop up. The key to these chocolate dipped chips is the ratio of chocolate to chip and having both sides coated is just too much.
  • You can gently shake the chip side to side to shake off some chocolate and then lay it on the prepared surface
  • Repeat with each chip
  • If you want to get "fancy" drizzle melted chocolate over the chips
