Double chocolate

  Might be the photo, but it looks to me like top is vanilla cookie with chock-chip, while bottom is chocolate cookie with chock chip, making it "double" chocolate.

    Yeah, that’s what a double chocolate cookie tends to be!

    Then there’s triple, which usually has a devil’s food cookie with two kind of chocolate pieces.

    Not to be rude but…

    clears throat

    the absolute FUCK is a vanilla cookie? I am a certified fatass and I’ve never heard of anything remotely like that.

    Or do you mean ‘a regular fucking cookie’? Either way, it’s shit product packaging.

    clears throat again

    Thank you.

      Yes.

      The only added flavor in standard chocolate chip cookie dough is vanilla. Plus the chocolate chips.

      Of course people don’t usually think about it like that because vanilla is in nearly all baked sweets.

    That makes sense, but why wouldn’t they include that chocolate in the percentage?

    • Archelon@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Might be referring to the percentage of the chocolate itself, denoting how “dark” it is.

      My best guess would be because the chocolate cookies don't contain any chocolate, but rather just cocoa powder.

    • Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I could be wrong, but maybe 40% of the cookie by mass is chocolate chips? Like a 1 gram cookie containing 400 mg of chocolate chips?

  Double chocolate if the cookies are chocolate and the chips are chocolate.

  source
• AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  I would assume double chocolate means chocolate dough and chocolate chips. Double in essence, not in quantity. And 40% is referring to how many chocolate chips are in the dough.

  • subignition@fedia.io ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    If it's milk chocolate the 40% is likely cacao content of the chocolate, not the percentage by volume in the dough

    source

    • AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Only way to know is if OP shows the ingredients. That brand of frozen cookie dough, however, uses dark chocolate chips for the double and milk for the standard, so it’s unlikely.

  Chocolate chip vs chocolate chocolate chip

  Twice as many things have chocolate in it (the chips vs the chips and dough)

  source

  • RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    It still says 40% chocolate on both packages though.

    source

    • Zorque@kbin.social ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Perhaps that's the level of chocolate? Like you can have 90% dark chocolate, this is 40%.

      I get how it would be frustrating for people who are reading it literally for the first time but I don’t think it was worded like that to be deceptive. Baked goods don’t have the most accurate names (Red Velvet comes to mind) and Chocolate Chocolate Chip/Double Chocolate Chip is a pretty common cookie

      source
• MrsDoyle@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  I my (extensive) cookie experience, double chocolate usually means the same amount of chips, but the dough part is also chocolate flavoured. Hard to tell in this instance, but the “double” cookies may be a shade darker.

  source
• HubertManne@kbin.social ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  unless 40% is caocoa content of the chips.

  source
• KingOfNexus@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  In cookie lingo, double chocolate means the cookie dough is chocolate flavoured as well as having choc chips. Triple chocolate means the chocolate dough with choc chips also has a chocolate coating on the bottom.

  source

  • AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    No… chocolate coating is usually referred to as “dipped.” Triple chocolate cookies are usually (but not always) chocolate dough with chocolate and white chocolate chips.

    Thank you, i did not know that

    source
• MangoPenguin@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Does it maybe mean 40% cacao content chocolate?

  Bender: “I’m 40% chocolate!”

  Not supporting this marketing, because its bullshit. but

  They could double the chocolate but also double the cookie dough

  Thus technically you’re getting double, and its still 40% of the cookie.

  Its just you also get double the dough.

  source

  • wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Actually if the number is based on the amount of dough than you’d get the same conclusion, so that also makes no sense (it’s still “40%”).

  you lost me at the american brand. blech

  • asm_x86@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    That’s just marketing, they were produced in germany and shipped to austria

      as someone who has to suffer overt patriotism daily, it kinda makes me ill.

  Could also be two different types of chocolate (adding up to the same amount overall). Both packages are 225g, so the overall weight is certainly not doubled.

  source
• dogsnest@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Double chocolate

  I might be stupid, but doesn’t “double” mean there’s more of it?

  So, you’re saying maybe 50%?

  That’s choc-flation for you.
