Toll House Cookie

Toll House Cookies were invented by Ruth Wakefield in 1930, while baking a batch of chocolate sugar cookies for her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. She had run out of baking chocolate, and substituted pieces of broken up semi-sweet chocolate, thinking it would melt into the batter. When it didn't, she found she had invented a delicious new recipe.
