Chocolate Chips for Cookies

Food & Drink, Events and Entertainment

The Felchlin Factory in Ibach (near Schwyz) has the best chocolate, and they sell commercial size quantities of chocolate rounds and chips. I wanted to make chocolate chip cookies when we arrived (in need of some comfort food and something "familiar") and couldn't find chocolate chips... until I discovered Felchlin.

They sell some of the finest quality chocolate in Switzerland. A lot of places that make chocolate truffles and specialty chocolate bars buy their raw chocolate from this factory. I plan on buying a bag of chocolate chips and taking it home with me... Tollhouse huh?

It is worth checking out if you like chocolate. The factory store address and number is Gotthardstrasse 13, 6438 Ibach T +41 41 819 30 79. Here is their website, too...

Me2!

If nothing else, I will forever be grateful to Switzerland for having a scarcity of chocolate chips in the shops. As a result, I ended up making these rough milk chocolate chunks for the chocolate chip cookie recipe I spent years perfecting. I was initially unhappy to use them until the cookies came out better than I ever could have imagined. I will never use chips again for my recipe.
