The chocolate-chip cookie, also known as the Toll House Cookie, was accidentally developed by Ruth Graves Wakefield, owner of the Toll House Inn near Whitman, Massachusetts, in 1937. Wakefield was making chocolate cookies but ran out of regular baker's chocolate and substituted broken pieces of semi-sweet chocolate, assuming it would melt and mix into the batter. It did not, and the cookie with chips of chocolate was born. (The restaurant, housed in a former toll house built in 1709, burned down in 1984.)

Today, half the cookies baked in American homes are chocolate-chip, with an estimated seven billion consumed annually.

Chocolate chip cookies are made with sugar, flour, eggs, semi-sweet baker's chocolate and butter. While the Toll House recipe is considered the standard, the ingredients can be adjusted to give the cookies slightly different properties.

For a thin, crisp cookie, increase the baking soda by up to 50%, replace one of the eggs with milk, and raise the ratio of brown sugar to white.
For a soft, cakey cookie, use cake flour, substitute baking powder for baking soda, and use shortening instead of butter.
For a chewy cookie, use bread flour, omit one egg white, and melt the butter before incorporating it into the mix.>br>

Melting the butter is the secret to these chewy chocolate chip cookies. This recipe, developed by free-lancer Catherine Vodrey, is slated to be published in the upcoming "The Old Farmer's Almanac Favorite Cookies."

1 stick unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg plus 1 large egg yolk
2 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Melt butter over low heat and set aside to cool. Put oven racks at top and lower-middle positions. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Stir together the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and set aside.

In a large bowl on low speed, beat together the butter and both sugars until thoroughly blended. Beat in egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract. Add dry ingredients and on lowest mixer speed, beat until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

Place large scoops of dough (about 2 tablespoons per scoop) onto parchment-covered cookie sheets, doing 8 to 9 scoops per sheet (if you don't have parchment, just grease the cookie sheets lightly -- they will end up slightly more crispy on the bottoms without parchment, but still excellent).

Place one cookie sheet on each oven rack. Bake at 325 degrees for 6 to 8 minutes, then reverse the cookie sheets, putting the one from the top rack on the lower middle rack and vice versa. Bake for another 6 to 8 minutes, or until just barely golden brown and puffed. Remove from heat and allow cookies to cool on cookie sheets for about 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Makes 2 to 2 1/2 dozen 3-inch cookies.

Chewy Chocolate Cookies
1 1/4 cups butter or margarine, softened
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups peanut butter chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips (12 oz pkg)

Directions
Heat oven to 350°. In large mixer bowl; cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually blend into creamed mixture. Stir in peanut butter or chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8-9 minutes. (Do not overbake; cookies will be soft. They will puff while baking and flatten while cooling). Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet onto wire rack. Cool completely.

These are outstanding cookies! Very chocolatey with a great texture. I suggest peanut butter chips in these, but for you chocolate fanatics, chocolate chips are also great! You can't stop at one on these (just a warning!)
