Skillet Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

We have made this giant chocolate chip cookie so many times. It is so simple to make and the crispy edges and gooey center are so hard to resist.

Skillet cookie is a gooey chocolate chip cookie that is the perfect dessert for sharing with the whole fam.

Our fam loves to top this skillet cookie with scoops of ice cream and caramel or hot fudge to really take this cookie over the top.

Making this giant cookie right in a cast iron skillet makes this recipe super easy. Simply make the chocolate chip cookie dough and press it into the cast iron skillet, then straight into the oven to bake to warm cookie perfection.

Serve right from the pan, cut into slices, or scoop out individual servings with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

How To Make This Cast Iron Cookie Skillet

To make this chocolate chip cast iron cookie recipe:

  1. Cream Butter and Sugars: start by creaming together room-temperature butter, brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, an egg, and one egg yolk in a large mixing bowl. Mix with an electric mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment until everything is well combined. The sugar should be mixed in well and the butter will be fluffy and smooth, this will take about 2 minutes.

  1. Add the Dry Ingredients: Next, sift in the dry ingredients. I like to place a wire mesh strainer over the top of the bowl containing the butter, then place the flour, salt, and baking soda into the strainer. Tap the side of the strainer to sift the flour mixture into the butter mixture.
  2. Combine the Wet and Dry Ingredients: use the electric mixer to mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until well combined. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to incorporate all the ingredients into the cookie dough.
  3. Don’t Forget the Chocolate: Lastly, mix in the chocolate chips until they are well distributed throughout the dough. I like to mix with the electric mixer, or you can fold them in with a spatula if you prefer.

  1. Prepare the Skillet Cookie for Baking: Press the chocolate chip cookie dough into a 12-inch cast iron skillet. Press the dough evenly into the pan so the cookie will bake evenly. The pan does not need to be preheated before placing the dough into the pan. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips over the top of the dough before baking.
  2. Bake Chocolate Chip Cast Iron Cookie: bake in a 375º F oven for 20 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. The center will still be soft and warm and ooey-gooey!

How To Serve Cast Iron Skillet Cookie

Chocolate chip cookie skillet is best served warm right out of the oven. Top this giant cookie with vanilla ice cream, fresh whipped cream, warm caramel, and hot fudge or chocolate sauce.

We might be found to go at this with a spoon right out of the pan! However, if you want to be more civilized; scoop some out into a bowl or slice like a pie, and top with your favorite toppings.
