Now that Hannukah has arrived, there’s no better time to get into the holiday cheer with some traditional food. But while latkes are delicious, latke cookies provide a unique if not unexpected flavor that will surely delight you and your loved ones. Here’s how you can make some scrumptious latke cookies in time for Hannukah.
Prepare the Apple Caramel
Add cider to a pan and heat until the liquid becomes syrupy. Add brown sugar, cream, butter, and salt before whisking the mixture together. Cook the mixture and continue to stir for about 6 to 8 minutes until the caramel is thickened and dark brown in color. Finally, add some cinnamon to the mix and whisk it in.
Bake the Cookies
Pour potato chips into the mixture. Spread potato chips onto a baking sheet and place in the oven to bake until dark brown. In a separate large bowl, whisk butter, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, and salt until a paste forms, after which you’ll add some vanilla.
Combine
Add the potato sticks to the mixture and, separately, roll the dough into a large log. After refrigerating for an hour, cut the log into rounds about 1/4″ thick. Place each cookie into the oven for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. At the same time, warm the caramel. Once the cookies are baked, dip each one into the caramel for a tasty treat.
