My dog ate chocolate chip cookies. Is it an emergency for an 80lb dog?

Question

My 80 pound Golden Retriever just stole 2 medium size chocolate chip cookies off the counter about 30 minutes ago. I would guess maybe 6-8 milk chocolate chips per cookie. It's almost midnight here.should i drive hom an hour to the closest emergency vet, make him vomit using peroxide or see how he is in the morning? Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Male | neutered | 10 years and 9 months old | 80 lbs

Such a small amount of milk chocolate is unlikely to have any effect in such a large dog. I recommend monitoring for muscle twitching or agitation, vomiting or diarrhea and arrange an emergency appointment in the unlikely event they occur
