Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cultural Context

Chocolate chip cookies originated in the United States in the 1930s when Ruth Wakefield created them at her Toll House Inn. They quickly became a beloved treat, symbolizing American baking culture. Today, variations abound, from gluten-free to vegan options, but the classic chewy version remains a favorite for its rich, buttery flavor and gooey chocolate chunks.
