BLUE CHEESE POTATO CHIPS
Game day calls for something bold. I top potato chips with tomatoes, bacon and tangy blue cheese. I make two big pans, and they always disappear. -Bonnie Hawkins, Elkhorn, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin 1/8-inch slices using a mandolin or sharp knife. Rinse the slices in several changes of water until the water runs clear. Drain them and pat them dry.
- Put about 3 inches of oil into a large deep pot; it should not come up more than half way. Bring the oil up to 325 degrees F over medium-high heat. Working in batches, carefully add the potato slices, a dozen at a time. Stir them to make sure they are not sticking together. Fry until they are a golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and drain them well on paper towels; season with salt. Repeat with the remaining potato slices.
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place a layer of the chips onto a baking dish and sprinkle with some of the bleu cheese and chives. Place another layer of chips onto that and some more cheese and chives. Continue until you have used up all the chips and cheese. Put into the oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes. Garnish with more chives.
HOT POTATO CHIPS
Steps:
- Pour the milk into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the warm milk and continue whisking until thickened, about 2 minutes. Season with the salt and cayenne. Continue cooking for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in the blue cheese. If the sauce is too thick, thin with a little extra milk. Keep warm.
- Place the potato slices on a baking sheet between layers of paper towels to make sure they are very dry before frying.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 375°F on a deep-fat thermometer. Fry the potatoes in small batches until golden brown on both sides, turning once, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a brown paper bag or another baking sheet lined with paper towels to drain. Immediately season with salt.
- Pour the sauce into a bowl and top with the remaining 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese and the chopped chives. Place the bowl in the center of a large platter and arrange the potato chips around the bowl.
