A gooey chewy chocolate chunk cookie that you stir and bake right in your cast iron skillet!
When you’re craving cookies, you want ’em and you want ’em now! Am I right or am I right?!
Well, meet my new favorite way to curb cookie cravings in a flash!
I just mix the dough and bake one big chocolate chunk cookie right in my cast iron skillet. It turns out perfect every single time! Gooey and chewy on the inside with a thin crisp crust on top and a little crunch around the edges!
We’ve baked this skillet cookie so many times already and are blown away every time we dig in! Scooping warm chewy chocolate chunk cookie out of a hot skillet is an experience that you just have to taste to believe.
It’s so easy and awesome you’ll be baking it any chance you get. Be sure to have a gallon of milk on hand though because you’re probably gonna need it!
Like I said, you just mix together the dough and bake the cookie right in the skillet! No bowls, mixers, cookie sheets, parchment paper, cooling racks, etc…
Give it a try! You’re gonna flip at how fast you can bake this charming cookie!
Enjoy! Enjoy!
