You can&#8217;t dip the chip straight in and then pull it out perfectly covered in chocolate (as great as that would be). \u00a0I ended up having to smear it on the chips.<\/p>\n<p>Place chocolate covered potato chip onto wax paper. Repeat with all chips until thoroughly covered. Add some colorful sprinkles, if desired.<\/p>\n<p>Let chocolate harden and then serve. \u00a0I put them in the refrigerator to cool for about 20 mins, then I set them free on my guinea pig friends that were over at my place.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-577\" title=\"Chocolate Covered Potato Chips\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips3-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips3-200x300.jpg 200w, http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips3.jpg 428w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-578\" title=\"Chocolate Covered Potato Chips\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips4-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips4-200x300.jpg 200w, http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips4.jpg 428w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-580\" title=\"Chocolate Covered Potato Chips\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips6-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips6-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips6.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-586\" title=\"Chocolate Covered Potato Chips\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips5-300x205.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"205\" srcset=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips5-300x205.jpg 300w, http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Choc-Covered-Chips5.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sooooo <strong>delish<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Merry Christmas everyone!<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_target addtoany_list\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a class=\"a2a_button_facebook_like addtoany_special_service\" data-href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=573\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_twitter_tweet addtoany_special_service\" data-count=\"none\" data-url=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=573\" data-text=\"Holiday Baking- Chocolate Covered Potato Chips\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_google_plusone addtoany_special_service\" data-annotation=\"none\" data-href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=573\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_pinterest\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/pinterest?linkurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcookiescupcakesandcardio.co%2F%3Fp%3D573&amp;linkname=Holiday%20Baking-%20Chocolate%20Covered%20Potato%20Chips\" title=\"Pinterest\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/icons\/pinterest.png\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Pinterest\"\/><\/a><a class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nwpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Only six more recipes to go on my Holiday Baking To Do List! \u00a0Uh, why didn&#8217;t someone try to stop me when I started that list? \u00a0It was a tad bit adventurous when you think this is my first couple months doing this blogging thing. \u00a0I&#8217;m so in love with baking now (and blogging!) .
