Skillet Cookie
Description
This recipe creamed softened butter with granulated and brown sugars before incorporating eggs and vanilla for moisture and flavor. Dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, and fine sea salt are mixed in gradually to form the dough. Hand-stirred chocolate chips are distributed evenly to create chocolate pockets.
The dough is divided into equal parts and pressed into greased cast iron skillets, then baked at 350°F until golden and just set, ensuring a soft but baked texture. The cast iron provides even heat and contrasts crisp edges with a soft middle.
Skillet cookies can be served warm directly in the pan, ideal for sharing. The recipe suggests caution handling hot skillets and recommends a short cooling period before serving. These cookies are a comforting dessert with a rustic homemade character.
