Best Answer

Ruth Graves Wakefield invented the first chocolate chip cookie ever when in 1937 she was in the Tollhouse Inn making butter do-drop cookies, when she decided to chop up a Nestle® chocolate bar and put it in the dough. She expected the chocolate to melt in the dough while baking. (Keep in mind this was NOT homemade chocolate.) Eventually, the Tollhouse chocolate chip cookie became a success, and people couldn't get enough of them! Ruth then signed a contract with Nestle saying that they could put her recipe on the back of their chocolate bar, and they'd give her a lifetime supply of chocolate. The chocolate bar seemed to be too hard to cut, so Nestle came out with semi-sweet chocolate morsels, or chocolate chips. They put Ruth Wakefield's recipe on the back of the bag. The chocolate chip cookie was indeed an accident.
