Did you know that the chocolate chip cookie was actually an accident?
Back in 1930s, Ruth Wakefield, the owner of the Toll House Inn, was making her famous Butter Drop Do cookies.
But she ran out of baker’s chocolate, so she improvised and decided to use broken pieces of a Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate bar instead.
She expected the chocolate to melt evenly and create a uniform cookie, but to her surprise, the chocolate chunks stayed intact and added a delightful texture.
And just like that, the chocolate chip cookie was born.
