Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies (original recipe)

This recipe is meant to capture the original Toll House recipe using european units of measure, and substituting a bit of molasses and more white sugar for brown sugar.

It is not exactly the same as the original recipe, since a good recipe needs to use rounded quantities.

* 1 c.c. vanilla (vanille)
* 2 eggs (oeufs)
* 1 chopped up semi-sweet chocolate bar (tablette de chocolat pātissier)
