Cookie Calculus: A Treat for the Mathematically Inclined

The Chewy Numbers

Welcome to the Cookie Calculus, where the art of cookie science meets the science of cookies.

We're a community of mathematicians, engineers, and cookie enthusiasts who've come together to explore the intricate world of cookies.

Cookie Type Calculus
Chocolate Chip The ratio of chocolate chips to cookie dough is a perfect example of a fractal.
Oatmeal Raisin The distribution of raisins within the cookie is a classic case study of Brownian motion.
Snickerdoodle The swirling patterns of cinnamon within the cookie are a manifestation of the Navier-Stokes equation.
