A recipe for a batch of 3 dozen cookies calls for 3 cups of flour, 1 cup of sugar, and 2 cups of chocolate chips.

How much of each ingredient should be used to make 2 dozen cookies?

Asked by jessicae1773971

Answer (3)

To make 2 dozen cookies:
1.5 cups flour
0.5 cup sugar
1 cup chocolate chips
When reducing the recipe by half to make 2 dozen cookies, you need to adjust the quantities accordingly. This means using half of the ingredients stated in the original recipe for 3 dozen cookies.

You can divide the entire recipe by 3 then multiply by 2. 2 cups flower, 2/3 cups sugar, 1 and 1/3 cup chocolate chips.

To make 2 dozen cookies, you will need 2 cups of flour, 3 2 ​ cup of sugar, and 1 1/3 cups of chocolate chips. This is done by scaling down the original recipe from 3 dozen to 2 dozen through division and multiplication. Adjusting ingredient amounts while keeping proportions allows for the correct recipe adjustment.
