Step 1: Preheat the Oven. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sea salt, and baking soda until well combined. Set this bowl aside.
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients. In another bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix with a whisk until smooth. Then, add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until the mixture is light and creamy.
Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
Step 5: Fold in Chocolate Chips and Potato Chips. Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped Lay's Wavy Original Potato Chips. This is where the magic happens—the sweet and salty flavors come together!
Step 6: Pour Batter into Pan. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the additional chopped potato chips on top for that extra crunch and visual appeal.
Step 7: Bake. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 8: Cool and Serve. Remove the blondies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, lift the blondies out using the parchment overhang and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Before serving, sprinkle a little sea salt on top for an extra burst of flavor.
