My day started with taking two little ones to swimming class. Usually my son cries before entering the pool. Today he enjoyed and had fun. Then while coming back we visited our library and borrowed some bread books for mom and story books for little ones. Son took his favorite cow book where as daughter picked her favorite 9 books. Yes it is heavy load and we came home, while in car my son started sleeping. On coming home my daughter asked me about chocolate chip cookies I made yesterday on her request.
This is the best chocolate chips cookies I have made. She loves it, she like everything chocolate, my son too loves dark chocolate. I used semi sweet chocolate chip cookies for these cookies; you can even add chocolate chunks that too tasty. Now they are having summer vacation so they want all the goodies, cookies, chocolate candies and cupcakes are they demand. When we go out they need donuts. I didn’t make at home because only kiddos will eat it, I and hubby are afraid of sweets. I don’t need to worry about finishing the chocolate chips cookies, because it is the most loved item by kiddos.
While searching the internet, I found some interesting facts of about chocolate chip cookies. First of all chocolate chip cookies was created by accident in 1930s, Ruth Wakefield, owner of the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts, added broken chocolate bar pieces into her cookie batter thinking that they would melt. Instead, the classic dessert was born. When it was created chocolate chip cookies were called as “Butterdrop do cookies” later it was re-named into chocolate crunch cookies when it was published in cookbook, Toll House Tried and True Recipes," First chocolate chip cookies were small and only bite sized and size of quarter and were also crispy.
Nestle paid the creator of the cookie for her recipe with a lifetime supply of chocolate. After acquiring Wakefield's recipe, the company invented the now ubiquitous teardrop-shaped chocolate chip in 1939.The world's biggest chocolate chip cookie weighed 40,000 pounds and had a diameter of 101 feet was created in 2003 by The Immaculate Baking Company in Flat Rock, North Carolina. It is also America’s favorite cookies.
This is my on the go chocolate chip cookie recipe, I make this cookies more often. I have already posted a spelt flour chocolate chip cookies. This time I post with all purpose flour. It is delicious give it a try. I used 1 cup chocolate chips you can add more if you want, anything more will be merrier. Give it try, you will love it.
