Ingredients
- ½ cup all-natural creamy almond butter

- Press the cookie dough into an 8’’ or 9’’ cast iron skillet. Optionally, add extra chocolate chips on top.

Notes
- Almond butter Sub: You can swap for peanut butter for a stronger, nuttier flavor. You can even use another nut butter like cashew or sun butter.
- White whole wheat flour Sub: Swap with regular whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour. Do not use coconut or almond flour for this recipe.
- VARIATIONS: You can add nuts, m&m's, Reece's cups, etc. I left notes above in my blog section.
- Make this cookie skillet dairy-free: Use dairy-free chocolate chips and coconut oil instead of butter to keep it completely dairy-free.
- Make this cookie skillet gluten-free: Use gluten-free 1:1 baking flour. Do not use almond flour or coconut flour. I left a specific recommendation in the notes section of the recipe card.
