Peanut Butter Tortilla Chip No Bake Cookies

Love the classic cornflake no bake cookies? This version made with tortilla chips is the childhood favorite, but all grown up and ready to fiesta!

“I think I have a crazy idea” is my very favorite way to think. Because all realllllly good ideas are usually a little bit out there. And this is one of them. I had this idea a few weeks back, and when I mentioned it to my daughter, her response was, “Ummmm… I don’t know about that.” And my husband said the same thing. 

We love the classic peanut butter corn flake no bake cookies, so I thought using tortilla chips instead would be like a salty/sweet version. And I love me a good sweet & salty snack.

But one Saturday afternoon I had a serious case of sweet-tooth-itis and decided to try them. And man… oh man… are they good. They are definitely a bit different than the corn flake kind, because the tortilla chips are a bit thicker so they are chewier. And the salt does that magic thing that just makes my sweet tooth a million kinds of happy.
