The clues:

First: Ruth Wakefield was a Massachusetts innkeeper who was famous for her home-baked goodies. One day she ran out of a basic ingredient and experimented with a substitute. The result was a huge hit, immortalizing the recipe, its inventor, and the name of her inn.

Second: Following the success of the Mashantucket Pequots, the Mohegan tribe built its own gleaming palace along Connecticut's Thames River, luring hundreds of thousands of visitors hoping to cash in their own sweet rewards.

This two-word phrase pairs the images:

_ U _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _

HINT: Ruth Wakefield's Toll House Inn gave birth to a serendipitous recipe that won worldwide fame for its creator and the inn's name with this ingredient. When visitors come to Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods, they hope to play these at their favorite tables.
