Why to try delicious Toll House marble squares
By Ann McDuffie – Tampa Tribune (Florida) May 20, 1967
Everyone loves Toll House Cookies — which is why they’re so popular. Now there’s a new twist to these cookies. That’s Toll House Marble Squares.
They have the same chocolate, old-fashioned flavor of Toll House Cookies, but the whole batch of batter is baked at one time in a baking pan instead of on cookie sheets. This way you save the time of spooning cookies onto cookie sheets, getting them into and out of the oven and removing the cookies for cooling.
There’s a neat trick to marbleizing the chocolate morsels throughout the batter. The cookie batter is put into the baking pan and a package of semi-sweet chocolate morsels is sprinkled over the top. The pan goes into a preheated oven for 1 minute to soften the chocolate, then it’s removed and a spatula or knife is run through the batter to “marble” the cookies.
Finally, the whole thing is returned to the oven to continue baking until done. This trick is really simpler than it reads and just about as quick.
To serve, the cookies are cut into 2-inch squares. That’s for busy days. When you have more time, you can bake regular Toll House Cookies. These, incidentally, are said to be the only all-American cookie… and is the most popular, most often-baked cookie in the United States today.
