Prepare Ultimate Chocolate Cupcake batter according the to the recipe instructions but don't put them in the oven yet.
Crush potato chips into small pieces by putting them in a plastic bag and pounding on them with a glass or by using a food processor.
Sprinkle crushed chips evenly over the unbaked chocolate cupcakes.
Bake according to the Ultimate Chocolate Cupcake directions.
Store very loosely covered and serve within 24 hours for maximum chip crispness.
Notes
If you are tempted to mix the chips into the batter, do not do so. I tried this technique and the chips became really soggy. Using the method in this recipe keeps them crispy.
