Book Description

Publication Date: October 15, 1983

Chocolate chip cookies are a true American delicacy: at the Toll House restaurant near Boston, Ruth Wakefield invented the very first "toll house" cookies with chopped-up bits of a Nestle's chocolate bar.

Originally inspired by a contest to find the best cookies in the nation, The 47 Best Chocolate Chip Cookies in the World spans the kitchens of America from Muskegon, Michigan, to Costa Mesa, California--and includes delectable tidbits of cookie lore (did you know that Napoleon always carried chocolate into battle with him for quick energy?) The only thing better than this book is a box of chocolate chip cookies!

Chocolate Chip and Macadamia Nuts
Bavarian Mint Chippers
Almond Chip Drops
Italian Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate Chip Pizza
Sweet and Wholewheat Cookies
And More!

4.0 out of 5 stars A good book if you like chocolate (and of course you do!), June 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The 47 Best Chocolate Chip Cookies in the World: The Recipes That Won the National Chocolate Chip Cookie Contest (Paperback)

If you like chocolate chip cookies, then you'll like this book. You wouldn't think that there could be this many variations on a basic receipe, but there certainly are. I'd recommend this book.
