Big and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

The chocolate chip cookie was invented by Ruth Graves Wakefield in the 1930s. She ran the Toll House Inn in Massachusetts and added chopped up chocolate to her cookie dough, expecting it to melt and create chocolate cookies. Instead, the chocolate chips held their shape and the chocolate chip cookie was born!
