Answer

4:2:1

The original recipe uses:
Flour: 2 cups
Sugar: 1 cup
Chocolate chips: 12\frac{1}{2} cup

The ratio of flour to sugar to chocolate chips is:

2:1:122 : 1 : \frac{1}{2}

To express this ratio with whole numbers, multiply each part by 2:

2×2:1×2:12×22 \times 2 : 1 \times 2 : \frac{1}{2} \times 2 4:2:14 : 2 : 1

The original ratio of ingredients (Flour : Sugar : Chocolate chips) is 4:2:1\boxed{4:2:1}.
