]]>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.
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.
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.

]]>Picking the right kind of potato is a crucial step. One of the best choices is the Yukon Gold kind that provides the perfect flavor and consistency. It’s important to peel them before boiling and boil until soft but don’t let them start dissolving. Remove from water and make sure they dry well before moving on to the next step.
You’ll get the best texture if you mash the potatoes by hand instead of using a blender. Blenders and food processors will leave you with overmashed potatoes that can’t be fixed. They need to be dry but still hot so work fast.
If you add all liquid at once, the potatoes won’t be able to absorb it. There’s also a chance you’ll add more than needed and end up with runny mashed potatoes. It’s better to add it gradually, mash, taste during the process, and stop when you like the result.
