    I actually don't use chips... I prefer melts or chunks...

    I made the yummiest choc chip recipe the other night and I added ovaltine to the dough... YUM!

    Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies - Originally from Coconut & Lime Blog


    Ingredients:
    1 cup plus 6 tablespoons flour
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
    1/2 cup dark brown sugar
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 egg at room temperature
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    8 oz semisweet chips (I used Hershey's Special Dark chips)

    Directions:
    Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly spray one cookie sheet with spray oil. In a medium sized bowl combine flour, salt, and baking soda. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and combine thoroughly. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the sweetened butter. Once combined, add chips and distribute evenly using the mixer on the lowest setting. Form cookies by dropping 1 teaspoon of dough on the sheet two inches apart. Smoosh them down a little then bake until light brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool if possible then serve with plenty of cold milk.

    Yields: aprox. 2 dozen cookies, depending on size
    I often mix it up and use a third white, a third dark and a third milk. But basically any chocolate, even lindt (whatever we have) gets used in choc chip cookies. And IMO brown sugar is a MUST in cookies... it just makes them chewy and delicious!

    I'm with Rouge, chunks are much better....but hey any kind will do.
    Made these yesterday....and they're all gone

    Bill Granger's Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chunk Cookies
    Makes 18

    150g firlmy packed soft brown sugar
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    4 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
    1 egg
    1 tablespoon natural vanilla extract
    155g plain flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    100g good quality milk chocolate, chopped

    Preheat the oven to 190 degrees. Line two baking trays with baking paper. Beat the sugar, butter and peanut butter with electric beaters until pale and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well combined. Sift together the flour and baking powder, fold into the mixture and then stir in the chocolate.

    Take heaped tablespoons of dough and roll into balls with your hands. Flatten them slightly and arrange on the trays, leaving some room for spreading. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown (the cookies will be soft until they cool). Cool on a wire rack and then store in an airtight container.
