This giant warm, ooey-gooey chocolate chip cookie is a dream come true. It’s like a cookie, but bigger, much, much bigger.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup (180g) unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup (135g) light brown sugar
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (175g) dark chocolate chip and/or chunks
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 320°F (160°C).
  2. In a 9-inch or a 10-inch cast iron skillet, melt butter over medium heat, stirring frequently until it begins to turn golden brown; about 3 minutes. Whisk in both sugars and vanilla.
  3. Remove skillet from heat and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before adding in the eggs*. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking after each addition, until well combined. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring until just incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips/chunks.
  4. Using a spatula, spread the dough until evenly distributed in the skillet. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center still soft and slightly under-baked. 
  5. Sprinkle sea salt all over, and serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Slice or let’s dig in right into the skillet!

Notes

* It’s important to let the melted butter and sugar mixture to cool off before adding the eggs or they will “cook” in the pan.
