I was wondering if who invented this chocolate chip cookie. So I did my research and according to dodocookiedough.com, it was actually invented by mistake by Ruth Graves Wakefield in 1937 in Massachusetts. She ran the Toll House Restaurant and would often bake cookies for her guests. On the day in question, she was making "Butter Drop Do" cookie when she realized she had run out of baker's chocolate. She used a bar of semisweet chocolate instead expecting it to melt into the dough but instead the pieces of chocolate kept their shape. And that was the first bath of chocolate chip cookie. She originally called the cookies, "The Toll House Crunch Cookies".[8]
