I was looking into recipies for chocolate chip cookies and some recipe calls for 2 1/4 cups while others would have 3 cups. The rest of the ingredients doesn't differ much. Hence I'm wondering what would adding more flour do to the cookie? Thanks for your information.

Stiffer dough and dryer cookie. If the cookie is going to be just for looks more flour would be ok. Say you were making cookies to hang on the Christmas Tree. For eats no way. Use what the recipe calls for.

When I use the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip package I always use 1/4 cup more flour.
It makes the cookies come out thicker and not hard and flat like they do sometimes.
It just depends on how you like your cookies.
Less flour, more thin and crispy.
More flour, more thick and softer.

More flour can make your cookies doughy and unsatisfying.

You get harder cookies, less greasy, less sweet..
