that cookie clicker made famous

Did you not have chocolate chip cookies on Germany until...the mid 2000s?

They've been like the default/staple home dessert in the US since like the 50s. They're so engrained in Americans' concept of home that realtors often toss some in the oven before a tour to convince potential buyers it feels like home based on the smell.

    Incidentally, the pure chocolate chip cookie is most often sold as American Cookie!

    But the cookie clicker was a pure associative jump I have to admit - it wasn't my first contact with chocolate cookies :)

    But traditionally the hike baked cookies have a huge variety especially around Christmas. There really are several items that I personally would not count as cookie but which are called that regionally apparently. Vanillekipferl from the south or Kokosmakronen from I have no idea where.
