I have 33 trillion cookies baked all time, and 8 trillion forfeited. Shouldn't I be getting more than One?

Depends what you mean by that. 8 forfeited should mean you have 2 heavenly chips. 33 trillion is between the thresholds for 3 (27 trillion) and 4 (64 trillion), so you're only eligible to get your 3rd heavenly chip, which is one more than what you already have.
You should at least get into quadrillions of cookies baked before ascending, or you'll barely get any benefit at all.
So, you're saying that before I get multiple heavenly chips per ascension, I need to have quadrillions of cookies already?
At the time of me posting this right now, I have 128 trillion cookies baked all time and forfeited.
As long as you're in the trillions, you're barely going to see an increase in heavenly chips. Soon, you won't get anything at all by staying there, as the chips become more and more expensive. 1 quadrillion is the threshold for 10 heavenly chips, which is still practically nothing, but you get chips far more frequently while working your way towards your first quintillion.
1 quintillion gets you 100 heavenly chips, which is enough to double your production! As mentioned in the ascension article, 440 heavenly chips is the recommended amount for your first ascension. For one, it more than quintouples your production, and it also lets you buy plenty of useful heavenly upgrades.
Ascending with 128 all-time baked is barely above the threshold for 5 heavenly chips. That's only a 5% increase, which barely makes a difference. As long as you ascend as early as you do, you'll keep struggling to get back to where you were. You need to be patient if you want ascension to be worth it.
Ok, Being Patient it is!
