There are 160 calories in a chips ahoy cookie. When it comes to cookies, the number of calories in a cookie is determined by the type of cookie you consume. An Oreo cookie, for example, contains approximately 53 calories per serving. Chips Ahoy brand chocolate chip cookies have 160 calories per three-cookie serving, according to the company.

Cookies baked at home can be more difficult to calculate the calories in because there is a great deal of variation in the ingredients used and the size of each cookie. The average homemade chocolate chip cookie, on the other hand, is likely to have roughly 75 calories and 4.5 grams of fat per cookie. In most cases, a homemade brownie (made from a commercial mix such as Betty Crocker) will have approximately 100 calories and one gram of fat per serving.

Hence, there are almost 160 calories in a chips ahoy cookie.
