One Pan Skillet Cookie

 

-->

I’ve seen these one-skillet cookies all over the blogosphere lately, and figured it was about time for me to try it. Whoever thought of making a cookie in a skillet should be given the Nobel prize for culinary ingenuity. Seriously, ingenious….and delicious. If you are looking to switch up the way you make chocolate chip cookies, I definitely suggest trying this one!

One Pan Skillet Cookie

Serves: 8-10

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 egg
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup chocolate chunks

Directions:

Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in an 8 inch cast iron skillet set over medium-low heat. 

mmm...butter...

 Stir in sugars and vanilla and remove from heat. Let rest until pan is warm, but no longer very hot, about 5 minutes.

Crack an egg onto the butter and sugar mixture, and use a fork to whisk it well into the mixture.

Place flour, baking soda, and salt on top, and very carefully stir into the mixture until smooth and well-mixed. Stir in chocolate chunks. 

 

 

Place in the oven for 15 minutes, or until starting to turn golden on the top and around the edges, but soft in the center. Serve with vanilla ice cream. 

 

One pan skillet cookies. Done and done. Highly recommended. 

Happy Eating!
