The story of chocolate chip cookies begins in the 1930s, when a woman named Ruth Wakefield invented the recipe at the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth was a dietitian and food writer who had a passion for baking. One day, she decided to create a new dessert to serve her guests. The original recipe called for a bar of Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate, which she chopped into small pieces and mixed into a buttery cookie dough. To her surprise, the chocolate didn’t melt entirely but instead retained its shape, creating delightful little pockets of chocolate in each cookie.
