With a to die for crust like this, this chocolate chip skillet cookie just oozes with chocolate and satisfies like nothing else can!
No words. I literally have no words to describe how ahhh-mazing this cookie is! For one, the word cookie, one BIG cookie. As in, I ate almost ate the whole thing.
You just have to make it to have this experience. One cannot live life without having eaten a skillet cookie. It’s just not possible.
Have I convinced you yet!? Now get in the kitchen and start baking!
Sigh* I can dream about these all day! This batter is super fun to play with too!
Start out with your butter and sugars. Mix them all together until light and fluffy.
Next, add your egg and vanilla.
Give it all a whirl until well combined.
Next add in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix it until well combined.
Throw in the chocolate chips. Now really measuring isn’t necessary here. We know how much or how little chocolate we like. Just eyeball it. I tend to have a big eye for chocolate chips!
Next, lick the beaters. Hello! We are baking cookies here, that’s a must! Sharing them is the best too so wander out and find your husband or kids and give them one. They’ll love you.
Choose your cast-iron skillet and butter it up. I used a smaller one because it was just the two of us. I just used half the batter and froze the rest for another time!
It’s a great idea because you have cookie dough ready in a pinch!
Add the cookie dough to the skillet and spread around until evenly spread and edges are touching all around the skillet.
Throw the whole thing into the oven and get ready for the best cookie you will have had in your ENTIRE life!

If you try this recipe comment below and let me know how you like it! I’m in LOVE with this cookie! (if you couldn’t already tell)
Do you have a cast iron skillet? What do you love about yours?
They are the best! I LOVE how mine is so seasoned, I can cook anything in them! I’ve learned that I won’t use it if I store it away. I use it as my only skillet (well I have two of them) and I just leave them on my stove so I have easy access.
Now, I’m not scared of them anymore! And I can make cookies!
