Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet Lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • 1 Microwave-Safe Bowl To melt the chocolate.
  • 1 Spoon or Fork For dipping chips into chocolate.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cups Potato Chips Thick-cut, ridged chips work best for this recipe.
  • 1 Cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips Substitute dark or milk chocolate if preferred.
  • 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil Helps to thin the chocolate for easier coating.
  • Pinch Sea Salt Sprinkle on top for extra flavor.

Instructions
 

Melt Chocolate:

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and melted.

Dip the Chips:

  • Using a fork or spoon, dip each potato chip into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coat. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing the chip onto the prepared baking sheet.

Optional Topping:

  • Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on each chocolate-covered chip before the chocolate hardens.

Set the Chips:

  • Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 20 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely set.

Serve and Enjoy:

  • Transfer the chocolate-covered potato chips to a serving dish or store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For variations, drizzle white chocolate over the finished chips for a decorative touch.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
