Hi, dear ladies in the good old US of A! *waves*
I'm looking for a chocolate chip cookie that I can actually bake. Meaning, all recipes on the Internet give the ingredients in cups and sticks and other odd measures of which I haven't got the faintest how much they are. Can anyone give me a really good recipe in the metric system?
Cross-posted like whoa, because I really, really need a working recipe!
Edit: Already got very useful links, thanks!
Additionally, can someone enlighten me what the measures mean in this recipe:

This one is for soft cookies, which would be better for Mum, and I mean I know how much a tablespoon or a teaspoon is supposed to be, but these cups???
