The chocolate cookie dough usually contains sugar (white or brown), flour, salt, eggs, fat (butter or shortening), baking soda, vanilla extract, and of course, chops of chocolate. But, different types of fat and different portions of ingredients can determine if the cookie will be moisty or crunchy. It all depends on the recipe and what you prefer.
But there is a number of ingredients that make different variations. Cocoa powder is usually added to the dough so that it can have a darker color. Some recipes incorporate even white chocolate chips (like our recipe). But different types of nuts and peanut butter are also often added.
Some people modify the recipe into the double and triple chocolate chip cookies. What does that mean? It refers only to the quantity of the chocolate in the cookies. So, the double uses the double amount of chocolate. The triple uses the triple amount of chocolate, and so on.
