Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour for a gluten-free option)
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • ⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus extra for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 6-inch cast iron skillet with nonstick spray or melted butter.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir until smooth.
  • Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until well incorporated.
  • Combine the Dry Ingredients: Add the flour, baking soda, and sea salt to the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined.
  • Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
  • Prepare for Baking: Press the cookie dough evenly into the greased skillet. Garnish with extra chocolate chips or a sprinkle of sea salt if desired.
  • Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown, but the center is still soft and gooey.
  • Serve: Remove from the oven and enjoy immediately for a warm, gooey treat. Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.

Notes

  • For a vegan option, use a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water) and dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • To make this cookie nut-free, ensure all your ingredients are processed in a nut-free facility.
  • Store leftovers in the skillet covered with foil for up to 1 day, though it’s best enjoyed fresh.
