a video of one of the recipes in the cookbook
the recipes are collected from “old” cook books.
It is interesting seeing some of the (minor) changes in recipes over time –
in this recipe the original instructions started with “7 ounce bars of chocolate” then required chopping those bars into “pea size pieces” —
SOMEWHERE along the way manufacturers started producing bags of chocolate chips of the appropriate size – and of course the “classic chocolate chip” recipe has been printed on those bags of chocolate chips for years
The recipe is still very good – and easy enough for the “cooking novice.” The resulting cookie will be superior to “store bought” cookies if done properly – of course the “economics of scale” allow for “cheaper” cookies BUT nothing beats eating warm cookies straight out of the oven …
