Toppings

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it is ready for baking.

  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Add the vanilla extract and the large eggs to the sugar mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated.

  5. 5

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

  6. 6

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

  7. 7

    Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the dough.

Baking

  1. 8

    Prepare the Skillet

    Grease a cast iron skillet with a bit of butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

  2. 9

    Spread the Dough

    Evenly spread the cookie dough into the prepared skillet, smoothing the top with a spatula.

  3. 10

    Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.

  4. 11

    Cool Slightly

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Serving

  1. 12

    Add Toppings

    Scoop the vanilla ice cream on top of the warm cookie skillet and drizzle with chocolate sauce to taste.

  2. 13

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm, using spoons to dig into the cookie and ice cream.
