  Jackson,
  You should try making them, I know it sounds like a strange thing to put in a cookie recipe but the combination of salty and sweet and crunchiness makes it a truly awesome cookie!

  I’ve had potatoe chip cookies and they’re delicious 😋. A coworker used to make them all the time but I never got the recipe. I’ve been searching for a recipe that tastes like hers, but haven’t found one yet. I’ll give this one a try but omit the pecans and add more chips instead.

  I've made potato chip cookies for a Christmas cookie exchange when I was in my 20s.(I'm in my 50s now). Oml, they were delicious and the recipe was requested by people who weren't doing the exchange. It didn't call for chocolate chips but that would make them even better.

  Sherry,
  What you're seeing are the pecans, this recipe doesn't have chocolate chips but actually I'm thinking adding chocolate chips would be a really good addition!
