Can I use chocolate chunks instead of chips?

Absolutely! Chopped chocolate bars or chunks often create more varied chocolate distribution and can provide richer flavor than standard chips.

How do I prevent white chocolate from burning?

Choose high-quality white chocolate with a higher cocoa butter content, and consider adding it during the last few minutes of mixing to minimize oven exposure.

Can I make these cookies smaller or larger?

Yes, just adjust baking time accordingly. Smaller cookies need 8-10 minutes, while larger ones may need 13-15 minutes at the same temperature.

What's the best way to measure flour for consistent results?

Spoon flour into your measuring cup and level with a knife rather than scooping directly. This prevents packing and overmeasuring.

Can I substitute milk chocolate for semi-sweet chocolate?

You can, but reduce the granulated sugar by 2-3 tablespoons since milk chocolate is sweeter than semi-sweet varieties.

Why are my cookies too soft or too hard?

Soft cookies usually indicate underbaking, while hard cookies suggest overbaking or too much flour. Adjust timing and double-check measurements for best results.
