You will want to cook it longer but it just depends on what it is. For example...baking a cake, the more batter in the cake pan the longer it takes to cook. But if you cook the same amount in two different cake pans then no...

∙ 9y agoThere are some recipes which cannot be doubled and then just double the cooking time. For example, if baking a cake, some cake recipes require such precise amounts and baking times, that you can't just double the ingredients, then cook longer. But for things such as sauces, soups, stews, etc., those are usually fine to double. And then increase the cooking time as needed, because the larger the amount, the longer it takes for the heat to distibute throughout all of it.

∙ 12y agoI would do it for about quarter of the time longer. e.g say i was cooking something and i took 2 hours i would add about half hour onto the time! so it would take two hours and a half.

You'll need a recipe - I suggest an internet search for the basic type of cookie you want, then scan for a recipe you think you can follow all the instructions of and get the ingredients for. The basic recipe is to mix the dry ingredients, mix the wet ingredients, blend the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, shape into cookies (either by dropping as pieces of dough or rolling out and cutting into shapes) then cooking them.
