Chocolate Chip Cookie

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic American dessert, featuring a dough made primarily from flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla, with semi-sweet chocolate chips mixed in. They are known for their soft, chewy texture and rich, sweet flavor. The cookies were invented in the 1930s by Ruth Wakefield, who ran the Toll House Inn. They quickly became popular, leading to the iconic Toll House cookie recipe. Often enjoyed warm, they pair well with milk and are a favorite treat at parties and gatherings, symbolizing comfort and indulgence in many cultures.
