Do you have your own special chocolate chip cookie recipe or are you strictly a Toll House Cookie person?
This is Chocolate Chip Cookie Week. For many years, my sister would make me Toll House Cookies as a Christmas gift. They were gone within two hours or so. Though I love these cookies, I like all types of chocolate chip cookies. I like them a little on the soft side, not hard, crispy discs. The secret is to under cook them a little bit.
MyRecipes has a recipe for Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies, and how about some Maple-Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies? Yes, maple and bacon and chocolate.
And here, of course, is the classic recipe for Toll House Cookies. They were invented (by accident, actually) by Ruth Wakefield in Whitman, MA, in 1930. They got the name because she owned a toll house where drivers would pay tolls and got something to eat. Good thing she didn’t work in a sewage treatment facility.
