Potato Chip Cookies (Recipe 2)

This recipe was something an older lady at a previous workplace used
to
bring in. I tasted it before I knew what it was, but liked it! I was
totally surprised it was made with potato chips, but after thinking
about it, it made sense. The recipe stands up to a lot of
alterations...
nuts, more sugar, cream of tartar, a BIT of chocolate. So go ahead and
experiment!

Ingredients:

1 c. sugar
1 c. shortening or butter
1 beaten egg
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. baking soda
2 c. flour
3/4 c. crushed potato chips (moderately fine)
3/4 c. nuts, crushed

Mix everything together and roll into balls. Flatten with fork dipped
in
flour. Bake at 350 degrees until brown.
