Help! Call the *waaahhhhbulance*!

I'm having cookie trouble!

I've attempted the recipe on the Toll House chocolate chip cookie bag. No nuts. So far, so good.

When I bake them, however. They seem to have flattened out, with a ring of dough around the edges and the chocolate chips in the middle. The chips have melted along the bottom and the dough is a bit greasy/shiny.

The oven was at the right temp (although it's electric and can randomly change temp) for the cookies, 375 degrees for 9 minutes.

*wails* Advice! I'm desperate! Ransom will be considered.

LOL, there is no "pre-bake" on my stove - it's so old it has buttons rather than knobs!

I'm going to try cutting the dough to the right size and chilling both the dough and the pan.

I'm going to third the issue being the flour ratio. I've made some pretty nasty batches of chocolate chip cookies (always the Toll House recipe) because there wasn't enough flour. In fact, I remember the first time I had that quandary, my mom took one look at the batch and told me to add flour.

Good luck with the cookie making! I'm pondering baking some next weekend, after I force myself to clean house, lol. Should be fun!
