The 411 on Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate chip cookies are easily the world’s most famous cookie, but what’s the story behind them? These cookies were actually created by accident when the owner of Toll House Inn ran out of a key ingredient for chocolate cookies. Rumor has it that she substituted a chopped candy bar, and the result was an instant hit!
By the 1940s, chocolate chip cookies were baking in ovens nationwide after Ruth Wakefield published her hit recipe. Since then, home chefs have created countless variations, including nuts, different types of chocolate, pretzels, and even allergy-friendly options. Every baker has their own preference, making their cookies crunchy, chewy, or soft. In true Crumbl fashion, this recipe is on the soft side.
You can also find chocolate chip cookies lining the shelves of every grocery store, bakery, and even some restaurants. Chocolate chip cookies are an American icon that never goes out of style.
