Mini Skillet Cookie (Pizookie)

This Mini Skillet Cookie is a chocolate chip cookie lover’s dream. It’s packed with chocolate chips, has a warm ooey gooey center, is topped with ice cream, and drizzled with chocolate syrup.

Who doesn’t love freshly baked, soft chocolate chip cookies straight out of the oven? They are a household favorite, so I knew this mini skillet cookie would be a hit.

It’s a larger sized chocolate chip cookie full of melty, semi-sweet chocolate chips with a super soft center that’s still warm from the oven. Top it some vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and you’ve got a decadent dessert that’s great for sharing.

This skillet cookie doesn’t take long to bake at all. It’s about the same amount of time as a regular chocolate chip cookie recipe, which makes it great for a quick dessert.

How to Make a Mini Skillet Cookie:

Let me start off by saying, I’ve tested this recipe a few times, and preparing the batter outside of the pan yielded the best results. I’ve seen some other recipes that show the batter being mixed right in the cast iron, but that turned the cookie into a rock hard mess in my case.

After prepping the ingredients, preheat the oven to 325°F. I used an 8-inch cast iron skillet, but any 6 or 8-inch oven safe skillet can be used.

In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Then add the egg and vanilla, and mix until combined.

Next, add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Continue to mix on low speed until no dry streaks remain.

Make sure not to overmix; otherwise, the dough will become dense. Fold in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips, and save the remaining 1/4 cup.

Press the cookie dough into the skillet in an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips over the top, and gently press into the dough.

Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the sides are lightly browned and the center is almost set. The center should still be soft and appear just slightly shiny and “doughy.”

The cookie will still cook some after it’s removed from the oven, since it’s being served in a hot pan. It’s best not to overbake it.

Remove the cookie from the oven, and allow it to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes. If desired, top it with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. Serve warm!
