Stella Parks (@bravetart) has done a lot of research into American desserts, and I gather from her work that the chocolate chip cookie goes back farther than the Wakefield story.https://www.seriouseats.com/2017/08/how-to-make-chocolate-chip-cookies-now.html …
TIL: The chocolate chip cookie was invented in the 1930s. I just assumed it always existed. "Wielding an ice pick, she chopped the bar into pea-size bits and dribbled them into the brown sugar dough with nuts." https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/21/obituaries/overlooked-ruth-wakefield.html …
