Chocolate Chip Bars

Chocolate chip bars were created by accident in 1938 by Ruth Graves Wakefield, who ran the Toll House Inn in Massachusetts. She added broken pieces of a chocolate bar into her cookie dough, expecting it to melt and create chocolate cookies. However, the chocolate pieces held their shape, resulting in the creation of the first chocolate chip cookie.
