I first made these Jumbo 3 Chip Cookies as part of a Nestle Toll House promotion, and since then I’ve made them over and over.
I like them because they are thick and chewy and the dough is sturdy enough to hold loads and loads of chocolate. Jumbo 3 Chip Cookies get their name from the fact they have a trio of different chips including white chips, milk chocolate chips and semisweet. You can make them with the chips, but you can also use chunks. I like to buy 3 different bars of chocolate (milk, dark and white), cut them up and throw them in the dough. For even more chunks you can broken Oreos or M&Ms.
This version below makes 12 big cookies (sometimes get 14), but if you use the Jumbo 3 Chip Cookie recipe from Toll House, you’ll get 24. Whichever version you make, I recommend scooping the dough and then chilling the scooped mounds of dough for several hours before baking.

Hi Cindy,
Sorry to hear your ex-sister-in-law wouldn’t give you the recipe. Maybe she was trying to use up different kinds of cereal and couldn’t remember the measurements so she just decided not to give it out. I don’t know. I’m going to email you for more info so I can do a search for the cookies.

My ex-sister-in-law baked some cookies that I’m sure had at least 3 types of cereal, Chocolate Chips and I think the kitchen sink. She would not give me the recipe and I’ve been trying to find it for almost fifteen years now. If you have this recipe or come across it, could you please post it. BTW, I’ve been looking at all the recipes you have and I can’t wait to try them.

Yet another fabulous recipe from your site. I made this cookie dough with heathbar chunks and chocolate chips. Instead of making a bunch of cookies, my friend and I made ONE big cookie birthday cake. We cooked it at 350 for about 15 minutes. It came out perfect. Thanks so much for sharing. Great recipe. Will use again 🙂

Thanks Anna!! I can’t wait to get to baking with all of my new goodies!!! Incidentally, my boys both love toll house slice and bakes almost as much as my favorite toll house cookie recipe. Thanks so much!!!! : )

From the looks of these gems, they would be good “mailers”. M&Ms, Reese’s pieces and peanut butter cups are lurking in the freezer, waiting to be baked in cookies. Would including the Cadbury egg be overkill? Just wondering… 😉

I baked with oreos today, too. I made your Outrageous Oreo brownies today. Today is my last first day of school, since my daughter is now a senior. I don’t know how that happened!
The brownies are fantastic, my not-so-little girl will love them when she gets home.
