Skillet Chocolate Chip Cookie

 Now why in the world would anyone bake a chocolate chip cookie in a cast iron skillet? Why? Oh perhaps because it produces a super gigantic cookie! A seriously delicious dessert, still warm from the oven, it has a soft gooey middle, and a crispy, crunchy golden edge. The perfect finishing touch, is a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream! Heaven in a pan! Make small individual ones and greedily eat directly out of the pan with a spoon  or make a larger sized pan, to slice up and share with family and friends. Please, please give it a try, I just know you are going to love it!








¾ cup melted butter
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup granulated sugar
1 egg + 1 yolk
2 cups flour
¾ tsp baking soda
1 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp vanilla
1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 180// 350°

In a large bowl, using a wooden spoon, combine melted butter and both sugars. Stir until there are no lumps.
Add in vanilla, egg and yolk. Stir until mixture is smooth and egg is fully incorporated.
Stir in flour, baking soda and salt until incorporated.
Fold in chocolate chips.
Spread evenly in a 10" cast iron skillet*.
Bake 15-20 minutes until edges start to golden. Don't overcook. The center will appear slightly loose.
Let cool 10 minutes on wire rack and scoop onto plates or bowls.
Serve with vanilla ice cream.


*you can bake the cookie in a small cake pan/pie dish
** I used 2 skillets, a very small one, and an 8" skillet
