And Erv
dad!
didn’t even get one!
Recipe #6 for the Unofficial 1970 Kiki Project revolved around these chips:
president's choice CHUNKS - new to me!
…and chunky monkeys these are! – – >
it looks like one chunk would equal about 5 regular chips!
Since the star attraction is the CHUNKS, I decided to just flip over the bag, and make the PC-provided recipe. Besides, aren’t the back-of-the-package recipes always the blue-ribbon winners?!

Here’s the recipe – it is quick and it is easy – – two of my favourite things!
…but best of all, this cookie dough ROCKS!! The batter baked up wonderfully – each cookie is a pillow of chocolatey-chunkiness.

PC Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Cream 1/2 cup softened butter [I did use a butter stick] with 3/4 cup packed brown sugar. Beat in 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla. Gently stir in 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 tsp baking soda. Stir in one package PC The Decadent Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks. Drop by heaping 1 tbsp amounts onto ungreased cookie sheets [I lined my sheets with parchment paper], spacing two inches apart. Bake one sheet at a time at 350 degrees for 9-11 minutes [I needed 10 minutes per sheet]. Cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes. Makes about 32 large cookies. [Hunh??! I got 18 NOT-large cookies!].
no sifting, no adding in increments; i mixed the wet ingredients, dumped on the dry, threw on the chunks, mixed by hand - that's the way i like to bake!
cookie clouds!
Only 18, though? Maybe I better set two aside for Erv
aka the yahtzee king!
asap!!
*#*#*#*#*

Are you into March Madness?!
I’ve loved Duke since the Christian Laettner era of the early ’90s.

I love your cookie clouds! And think chunks are the way to go. Much more chocolaty goodness in each bite. I’m not really into March Madness – I was in college, but Billy still like its! He ha a bracket and everything. 🙂
that’s what i’m regretting now! i SHOULD have entered some sort of pool…being in a contest makes the games even that much more exciting! hope billy’s team does well…unless they’re playing DUKE!!! haha!
Well, I’ll be the first to admit that I didn’t even KNOW what March Madness is until I was reading your comments!
Those cookies look amazing! Holy serious chocolate, Batman! The trouble is always that I can’t stop at just one!
Can’t wait to see you tomorrow! 🙂
(at which point I’ll try not to speak entirely in exclamation points!!!!!)
i’m so excited, too!!!! i have a feeling we are going to have quite the hyperactive visit! um, never fear re the usage of exclamation points!! as you can tell from my emails and the blog, i am a! huge! fan!! at least i recognize i have a problem! 🙂
Oh…those chips/chunks look insaaaaaaaaaaaaaane! I still think the portion disparities are hilarious!
they’re serious chunks, i do tell ya! yea – who do these cookbook authors get their portion sizes from – tom thumb?? and i was quite moderate in my cookie sizing last eve – what if i had done my typical 1/4 cup sizing?? hello, five cookies, maybe?!!
I have to laugh about the Christian Laettner thing — he played for the MN Timberwolves! I would go to those games with my dad every once in a while.
Those cookies look so good — choc chunks was a good choice!
funny, i never followed CL’s pro career! i just was a fan when he was with duke! too cool that you saw him play live!!
I’m not into March Madness at all. I tried once, but I just can’t get myself to pay attention. The cookies look great—cookie dough is no match for me! I often eat more of that than the cookies 🙂
Hope your two saved ones made it to their intended recipient!
i wish i had entered a basketball pool this year! this ncaa tourney is way exciting ~ but i can see if it’s not your thing! yes – i just dropped two cookies off at dad’s door (my parents live in the building next door)! since i didn’t like the “splat batch,” it’s better that i can share these!
March Madness is happenin’ in Kansas. KU (go Jayhawks) are playing in the Sweet Sixteen so everyone around here is excited. My daughter went there so I’m a big fan and they do have a super b ball team.
all right, johanna! go, jayhawks! glad the team is looking strong!! fingers crossed…unless it comes down to duke vs kansas, at some point!
