And if you are curious…my hand is healing nicely!

It’s National Dessert Day! I hope you are curled up tonight with your favorite flavored yummy!
What is your #1 go to dessert- either for a potluck, pick-me-up, family tradition or midnight indulgence?

I’ll start. I have many favorites, but one that always beats the other ones out is my grandma’s Butter Yeast Horns which are on the bottom of this photo.

If you know me personally, you know I was raised in the Navy. So when I came across this, I of course had to share! It is the recipe used to make
10,000 chocolate chip cookies aboard the USS Yorktown, a WWII-era aircraft carrier which is now displayed at the Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum in South Carolina.
500 eggs? Yee gads!

Fall time at Center Grove Orchard means hayrack rides, slides, pumpkin picking, corn maze, corn pen and makin’ s’mores! I also tried a cup of their chocolate chip cookies for the first time. I like them m u c h better than the Iowa State Fair choc chip ones…but not as much as mine!

Here’s a little cookie history, because you know, so many cookie related things pop up in my feed!

Here is Ruth Wakefield’s 1938 Chocolate Crunch Cookies recipe, aka Toll House Cookie (also include is a chocolate cookie recipe) . She is credited for the first Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, although this one uses chopped chocolate bar. This is scanned from her 1938 Tried and True cookbook. The Library of Congress houses the original printing of this cookbook which contains the first-ever published chocolate chip cookie recipe.

As the story goes, she and her husband owned the Toll House Inn in Massachusetts where she created the recipe. In exchange for Wakefield offering Nestlé permission to print the recipe and market their semi-sweet chocolate as a key ingredient, Wakefield received a $1 payment for recipe rights, a lifetime supply of baking chocolate, and a consulting deal with Nestlé. In tribute to the origin story, Nestlé branded the products "Toll House Cookies."

Someone made a comment in passing which reminded me of these cookies. Just totally out of the blue and odd that I recalled them. So I dug into my archives and there they were…waiting for me to post again. June, 2020.
