Notes: This recipe is something my mom, Stephanie Blood, has made since she was a teenager in the 70's. I remember it from my childhood and we still make it often. Stephanie found this recipe in a Betty Crocker cookbook. My Aunt Joy, the eldest sister, didn't care for her younger sister being in the limelight when these were made and dubbed these delicious Butterdips "Buffalo Chips".
