Homemade Chocolate Chips

Cultural Context

Chocolate chips have become a staple in American baking, especially in cookies. Their invention in the 1930s is attributed to Ruth Wakefield, who added them to her cookie recipe at the Toll House Inn. Today, homemade chocolate chips are cherished for their customizable sweetness and flavor, allowing bakers to experiment with different types of chocolate and sweetness levels.
