Equipment
- cast iron skillet
Ingredients
- 12 Tablespoons butter 1 ½ sticks melted and cooled until warm
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour + 2 Tablespoons
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips I use half semi sweet and milk chocolate
Instructions
- Heat oven to 325 degrees F.
- Add butter to a microwave safe bowl and microwave for about 45 seconds, or until most of it has melted. Allow it to cool for a few minutes.
- Add melted butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar to a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer until well blended.
- Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt, just until combined.
- Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
- Press the cookie dough into a 10'' or 12'' cast iron skillet (or a regular, oven-safe skillet would work).
- Bake for 28-35 minutes or until it looks just barely golden. Don't over-bake it, especially since it will continue to cook in the hot skillet when you take it out of the oven.
- Allow to cool in the skillet for at least 20-30 minutes before cutting.
- Slice cookie into pieces and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
