Chocolate Chip Cookie Skillet is a super easy recipe the whole family will love! It’s crispy around the edges and gooey in the middle. Freshly baked from the oven and topped with a few scoops of ice cream!
I’ve easily made hundreds of cookies over the years and recently have refined the perfect recipe for Big and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies. It’s safe to say that I’ve got it down and my entire family loves them.
A few weeks ago we went out to eat as a family and I noticed they had a chocolate chip cookie skillet on their menu. My boys begged us for dessert so we indulged a bit. It came with a few scoops of ice cream and came out piping hot! Just the way I like my cookies to be.
It was crispy on the outside and gooey in the middle. I have to admit, though, the actually cookie recipe itself tasted very manufactured. Not how I like my cookies! I kept the idea in the back of my brain to make it at home sometime in the near future.
How To Make A Skillet Cookie
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Lightly spray a 10″ ceramic cast iron pan.
- In a large stand mixer cream together butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar together on medium speed for 2 minutes.
- Add in the egg and vanilla and beat well.
- Mix in baking powder, baking soda, salt, cornstarch and flour until just blended.
- Add in chocolate chips and mix until incorporated.
- Spread evenly into the skillet.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until edges are golden brown and the middle is slightly gooey. Do not over bake.
- Cool for 5 minutes and serve with ice cream.
I used a 10″ ceramic cast iron skillet which is ideal. If you don’t have one just make sure whatever pan you use is non-stick, but can also be placed in the oven. Be sure to double check that the handle won’t melt.
Serve it hot and top it with scoops of ice cream. You could even drizzle it with some chocolate or caramel sauce! Needless to say, my boys loved it and loved the idea of a giant cookie.
Pass out spoons and tell everyone to dig in!
