THE FAMOUS RECIPEĪlthough we call the cookies that bear them "chocolate chip," the proper name for said chips is actually “morsels”-at least if you’re Nestle. The recipe was such a hit (it first popped up in Wakefield’s Tried and True cookbook in 1938, and it even appeared on Betty Crocker’s radio show, thanks to its massive popularity) that Wakefield eventually struck a deal with Nestle: They would feature her recipe on the back of every bar of semi-sweet chocolate the company sold, and she’d get a lifetime supply of their chocolate. (There’s a whole other story that imagines that Wakefield ran out of nuts for a recipe, replacing them with the chocolate chunks.) The chocolate was originally in the form of a Nestle bar that was a gift from Andrew Nestle himself-talk about an unlikely origin story! The semi-sweet chunks didn’t melt like baker’s chocolate, however, and though they kept their general shape (you know, chunky), they softened up for maximum tastiness. The traditional tale holds that Toll House Inn owner Ruth Wakefield invented the cookie when she ran out of baker’s chocolate, a necessary ingredient for her popular Butter Drop Do cookies (which she often paired with ice cream-these cookies were never meant to be the main event), and tried to substitute some chopped up semi-sweet chocolate instead. They’ve even got a whole story to go along with the kinda-sorta myth of the Toll House cookie. The baking bits purveyor has long stamped their “Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie” recipe on the back of their various morsel packages (and yes, all Nestle packages refer to them as “morsels,” not “chips,” but we’ll get to that later), so it’s no surprise that most people associate the famous cookie with Nestle. It finally paid off.Chances are, you’ve made (or at least eaten) a Nestle Toll House chocolate chip cookie at some point in your life.
