Ingredients

• 115 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Brown sugar, packed
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 190 grams All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 60 grams Fritos corn chips, coarsely crushed
• 120 grams Semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon Flaky sea salt (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a handheld mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently fold in the crushed Fritos corn chips and semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 8

If desired, sprinkle a small pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each cookie for an extra flavor boost.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear soft.

Step 10

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy these delightful salty-sweet cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
