Directions: |
Directions:Heat over to 350º
Combine first four ingredients. In a larger bowl, mix the second 4 ingredients and blend until smooth. Gradually add dry ingredients until well blended. Press evenly and firmly into a 13X18" baking pan. Brush the remaining egg white over the cookie dough. Combine sugar, cinnamon, and chips and sprinkle evenly over the dough. Use your hands to press chip mixture into the dough. You can put wax paper over the dough to keep your hands from getting gooey, but sometimes the topping wants to stick to the wax paper and you end up all gooey trying to get it back on the dough.
Bake for 25 minutes.
When COMPLETELY cool, cut into squares and store in a covered container. |

Notes: These cookies got their name from my great aunt Josephine whose nickname was Chip (I have no idea why) She brought these cookies one Christmas and they instantly became a favorite -- particularly to Uncle Jay and my dad. When Dad and I started dating, he fell for the CCCs on the first Christmas we were together. The following year, Nana baked an entire batch of the CCCs for Dad and had to Christmas wrap them in a shirt box to hide them from Jay. What 16 year-old boy would go snooping in a boring shirt box looking for cool Christmas presents. It worked....
Now back to the recipe, I usually do a double batch of these, I discovered that it's easier to mix the cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle that on the dough after the egg white. Then you can sprinkle the chips and overall everything is distributed more evenly. One year when feeling a bit lazy I tried melting the butter instead of waiting for it to soften, recipe still worked and tasted fine.
