The History of Chocolate Chip Cookie Week
Chocolate Chip Cookie Week is a delightful celebration dedicated to one of the most beloved baked goods in the world, the classic chocolate chip cookie. This special week is all about honoring the history, evolution, and joy of baking and sharing cookies with loved ones.
The Origin of the Chocolate Chip Cookie
The chocolate chip cookie was invented in 1938 by Ruth Wakefield, an American chef who owned the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. According to historical accounts, she intended to create a new kind of chocolate cookie, but instead, she stumbled upon something revolutionary when she added chopped-up Nestlé chocolate to her dough. Instead of melting into the dough, the chocolate retained its shape, giving birth to the first-ever Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie.
Nestlé recognized the genius behind this creation and struck a deal with Wakefield to feature her recipe on their chocolate chip packaging in exchange for a lifetime supply of chocolate. Since then, the recipe has become a staple in households worldwide.
Why We Celebrate Chocolate Chip Cookie Week
The purpose of Chocolate Chip Cookie Week goes beyond just indulging in cookies; it’s about celebrating the traditions, techniques, and tools that make baking these treats so special. It encourages people to bake from scratch, experiment with recipes, and share their baked goods with family and friends.
At NutriMill, we understand the joy of homemade baking and are committed to providing the best tools to help you make perfect cookies every time.

Tips for Baking the Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie
1. Use High-Quality Ingredients
The quality of your flour, butter, chocolate, and sugar plays a huge role in the taste and texture of your cookies. Using freshly milled flour can elevate the flavor and nutrition of your cookies. Consider using a NutriMill Grain Mill to mill fresh flour at home for an unmatched baking experience.
2. Measure Ingredients Properly
Baking is a science, and accurate measurements are key to achieving the perfect cookie. Use a kitchen scale instead of measuring cups to ensure consistency.
3. Chill Your Dough
Chilling cookie dough before baking helps solidify the fat, leading to thicker, chewier cookies. It also allows flavors to meld together for a richer taste.
4. Experiment with Different Chocolates
Classic chocolate chips are great, but don’t be afraid to try different types of chocolate. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate all create unique textures and flavors.
