TOLL HOUSE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies image

In the 1930s, Ruth Wakefield, the inventor of the chocolate chip cookie, ran the Toll House Inn, a popular restaurant in eastern Massachusetts, with her husband. Using an ice pick, Wakefield broke a semisweet chocolate bar into little bits, mixed them into brown-sugar dough, and the chocolate chip cookie was born. In 1939, she sold Nestlé the rights to reproduce her recipe on its packages (reportedly for only $1) and was hired to write recipes for the company, which supposedly supplied her with free chocolate for life. This recipe is very close to Mrs. Wakefield's original (hers called for a teaspoon of hot water and 1/2-teaspoon-sized cookies), and the one you'll still find on the back of every yellow bag of Nestlé chocolate chips.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This is especially important for the chocolate chips. Look for chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a rich, dark color.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help the cookies develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior. Bake the cookies at 375°F for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack. This will help the cookies cool evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies are a classic for a reason. They're simple to make, delicious, and loved by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make the best Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies that you'll ever taste.
