Chocolate chip cookie calories: per cookie, per 100g and by size

A chocolate chip cookie is a buttery, sugary treat studded with chocolate, so most of its calories come from the butter, sugar and chips packed into it. The number moves mostly with how big the cookie is and how many you eat, while extra chocolate or nuts nudge it a little higher.
