Skillet Chocolate Chip Cookie

By srumbel

it is super easy to make! This batter comes together quickly and bakes up to a golden perfection. You start by making a traditional cookie recipe then just pat it firmly into your pan and stick it in the oven. My kind of recipe for sure. The outcome is an incredibly soft, rich buttery cookie base dotted with melted, sweet milky chocolate. It's so good that it will quickly disappear from your pan - at least that's what happened in my house!

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup milk chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Heat your oven to 350 degrees.

Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.

In a large bowl of an electric mixer using the paddle attachment, add the butter and sugars and beat until mixture is fluffy, approximately 2 minutes. Then add the egg and vanilla and mix until completely blended. Slowly add the four mixture and blend until just combined.

Scoop dough into a 9-inch cast-iron skillet and press with your hands to flatten. Bake until cookie is golden brown, about 35-45 minutes. Be sure not to over-bake or it will harden. Cool for about 5 minutes before cutting into wedges.
