Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Pizza Cookie image

From the moment in 1930 that restaurateur Ruth Wakefield invented the chocolate chip cookie - that's her iconic recipe on the back of the Nestle Toll House package - bakers have played with the proportions and fiddled with the formula. Including us - our 1957 riff on Wakefield's recipe calls for cornflakes, and the cookie here replaces a cup of the flour with oats to make the edge crisp yet keep the center chewy. Supersizing the cookie to pizza proportions is faster - and more fun - than dropping the dough by the spoonful. From Good Housekeeping.
