The chocolate chip cookie was inadvertently created in 1930 by Ruth Graves Wakefield at the Toll House Inn in Whitman, MA. Lacking baker's chocolate for her cooke recipe, she substituted a chopped semi-sweet chocolate bar, expecting it to melt into the batter during baking. The chocolate didn't melt, and the cookie became an instant American cla$$ic. Ruth received a lifetime supply of chocolate for the rights to publish the recipe.
Man! I sure wish I could have been Ruth! :lol: Who wouldn't want a lifetime supply of chocolate!? :lol:
Now I'm really hungry!!! :lol: MUST HAVE COOKIES!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
