Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Ingredient List:

Chemical Ingredients:

  1. All-purpose flour (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) - 2 1/4 cups ( approx. 281 g)
  2. Granulated sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) - 3/4 cup (approx. 150 g)
  3. Brown sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + moisture) - 3/4 cup (approx. 165 g)
  4. Unsalted butter (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁, fats) - 1 cup (approx. 227 g)
  5. Eggs (proteins, fats, vitamins) - 2 large
  6. Vanilla extract (C₈H₈O₃) - 1 tsp (approx. 5 mL)
  7. Baking soda (NaHCO₃) - 1 tsp (approx. 4.6 g)
  8. Salt (NaCl) - 1/2 tsp (approx. 2.5 g)
  9. Semi-sweet chocolate chips (C₁₂H₁₈N₂O₈S) - 2 cups (approx. 340 g)

Recipe Procedures:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed. Set aside.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and light in color.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  5. Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Scoop and Place on Baking Sheet: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  9. Cool: Remove from oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Recipe Observations:

  • The dough consistency should be soft but not overly sticky.
  • The baking time may vary depending on your oven; keep an eye on the cookies for best results.
  • If the cookies are left in the oven too long, they will become hard instead of chewy.

Results/Final Product:

  • The expected result is a batch of 24-36 chocolate chip cookies that are golden brown around the edges and soft in the center, with melted chocolate chips distributed throughout.

Conservation of Mass:

  • The total mass of the ingredients before baking must equal the total mass of the final cookies (minus any moisture lost while baking). This principle aligns with the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a closed system. Therefore, the total weight of the raw ingredients should equal the weight of the baked cookies if moisture loss is accounted for during the baking process.
