Note from Brandon: Cool Ranch Doritos are the best Doritos in existence. This is something we established as irrefutable fact a couple months ago, when we got in a blogger pissing match over Nacho vs. Cool Ranch here at the BroBible office. In honor of National Tortilla Chip, which is a real thing that people will celebrate on Tuesday, February 24, we’ve put together a recipe for making Cool Ranch Doritos yourself from our friends at Spoon University. It’s so easy a stoner could do it…
What snack food is more sacred than the tortilla chip? There is none. Whether it be salsa, queso, guac or 7 layer dip, everything is made better by the brittle crunch of a corn chip. But not all chips are created equal. You might be a fan of blue corn, hint of lime, scoops or whatever new flavor Frito-Lay comes out with, but there is one chip that stands above the rest: the Dorito. The zesty punch of a Dorito has occupied the taste buds of snackers everywhere, be it game day or late night. So today, we are showing you the insider recipe to creating your very own Doritos at home.
