Instructions

1. Brown the butter in a small pot over medium heat, whisking constantly, until it turns golden and the milk solids settle brown on the bottom, about 4 to 6 minutes. Watch closely so it does not burn.
2. In a large bowl, whisk the white sugar, brown sugar and browned butter until combined. Add the egg and vanilla and whisk until fully incorporated.
3. Add the cake flour and bicarbonate of soda and mix with a spatula until a smooth dough forms.
4. Crush the salted potato chips into small pieces by hand, then fold them and the chocolate chips into the dough until evenly distributed.
5. Divide the dough into 14 balls and place them on a tray. Press extra chip pieces and chocolate chips into the tops, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
6. Preheat the oven to 175°C (fan-assisted) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
7. Space the dough balls well apart on the tray and bake in batches for 12 to 14 minutes, until golden brown. Bake only as many as you need; freeze the remaining dough balls in an airtight container.
8. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack, or serve slightly warm.
