To cook a recipe for 9 dozen cookies, you will need to scale up the ingredients from the original recipe, which yields 3 dozen cookies. Below is a scaled-up version of the recipe:
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1 and 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 3 cups flour
- 1 and 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 and 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 and 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 and 1/2 cups butter
- 3 cups chocolate chips
Explanation:
Since the original recipe yields 3 dozen cookies and you want to make 9 dozen, you need to multiply each ingredient quantity by 3.
For example, to determine the amount of eggs needed:
Original recipe = 1 egg for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe = (1 egg) x (3) = 3 eggs
Similarly, you can calculate the quantities for the other ingredients:
- Brown sugar: 1/2 cup for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1/2 cup) x (3) = 1 and 1/2 cups
- Flour: 1 cup for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1 cup) x (3) = 3 cups
- Sugar: 1/2 cup for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1/2 cup) x (3) = 1 and 1/2 cups
- Salt: 1/2 tsp for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1/2 tsp) x (3) = 1 and 1/2 tsp
- Vanilla: 1/2 tsp for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1/2 tsp) x (3) = 1 and 1/2 tsp
- Butter: 1/2 cup for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1/2 cup) x (3) = 1 and 1/2 cups
- Chocolate chips: 1 cup for 3 dozen cookies
Scaled-up recipe: (1 cup) x (3) = 3 cups
By following this scaled-up recipe, you will have enough ingredients to cook 9 dozen cookies.
