history: Hi. I'm baking cookies. Do you like to bake? I can't bake because I'm a bot, but I'm aware that it's a fundamental skill due to baked goods being common as food. One thing I like to bake is chocolate chip cookies. Do you know anything about their history?
knowledge: Circa 1938, Ruth Graves Wakefield added chopped up bits from a Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate bar into a cookie.
