TOLL HOUSE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

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.

NEW ENGLAND TOLL HOUSE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKY



New England Toll House Chocolate Chip Cooky image

What a great day to have my in-laws over and Mom, Cheryl baking with my husband Anthony. It's a fond memory for him making these Chocolate Chip cookies with his mother. It's a very old Betty Crocker Cookbook she brought along to make the recipe with. Since 1939, we Americans have been enjoying this classic cooky (as they spelled it. I only hope we have a few more moments like this. It is a great recipe and slightly different than the other one I have posted.

2/3 cup(s) shortening, butter flavored
1/2 cup(s) granulated sugar
1/2 cup(s) brown sugar, firmly packed
1 large egg
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla
1 1/2 cup(s) flour, gold metal brand
1/4 cup(s) flour (for a softer rounded cooky -- add this)

1 cup(s) semi-sweet chocolate pieces (1 cup) or 6 oz.
1/2 cup(s) chopped nuts, optional

Steps:

  • Set oven to 375 degrees. Mix together shortening, sugars, egg and vanilla till well combined.
  • Measure out your flour after sifting. (For a softer, rounded cooky, add 1/4 cup more flour.) Stir dry ingredients together; then blend in to the other mixture. (Love my Tupperware sifter!)
  • Mix in nuts & chocolate pieces. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls of dough about 2" apart on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes till lightly browned. (Cookies should still be soft.) Let cookies cool on sheet for a minute or two before placing on a cooling rack.
  • Enjoy your cookies with some nice cold milk.
  • I wanted to add a photo of Anthony & his parents as well for special memories.
