directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and grease lightly with butter.
2. In large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add Simply Potatoes Hashbrowns and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
3. In the meantime, melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Combine cookie mix, eggs, melted butter and 1 cup of chocolate spread in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer, until the ingredients are well combined. Fold in cooked potatoes.
4. Spoon batter on baking sheet (about 1 tablespoon per cookie), leaving at least 2 inches of space in between each cookie (they will spread significantly).
