It`s Chocolate Chip Cookie Day in the USA!
Whether you like them crispy or chewy, American's National World Cookie Day is celebrated every 4th of August.
And what's the best way to celebrate this happy day? It's by eating cookies, of course!
Here is a timeline of this happy creation:
- In 1938, Ruth Graves accidentally created the first-ever chocolate chip cookie in an inn called Toll House. At first, it was called The Chocolate Crunch Cookie.
- In 1963, Americans favorite cookie debuts in U.S supermarkets by the name of Chips Ahoy!
- In 1991, the world went bananas when Ben & Jerry's released the Chocolate Chip Cookie dough ice cream.
- In 1997, the Chocolate Chip Cookie is named and recognized as the official state cookie of Massachusetts.
So if you want to find any reason to gather around your friends and family, then celebrate this happy day!
You may throw a cookie bake off at home with family or going cookie hunting with friends in town or even sharing cookies with new friends to start up conversations.
But if you want to just enjoy your cookies by yourself, you may still join in the fun through socials.
