Skillet Cookie

• 1 c. unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 c. brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 2 1/4 c. bread flour or all-purpose
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 c. chocolate chips or chunks

1. Preheat the oven to 325 F degrees.
2. In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
3. Put the softened butter and brown sugar in a separate bowl.  Mix with a hand mixer until small and grainy.
4. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until the mixture is wet and brown.  Should be a uniform mixture.
5. Next, add the dry mixture in two separate batches and mix until the cookie dough is uniform and mixed thoroughly (do not over mix).
6. Once properly mixed, fold in the chocolate chip until distributed evenly.  
7. Grease or spray a 10-12 in large cast iron skillet. Distributed the cookie dough evenly throughout the skillet and smooth with a spatula. Place in the oven for about 26-30 min or until the sides are crispy brown and the middle is baked all the way through.
8. Pairs perfectly with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce!

"Me Cuisine" Tips

• Put 2 tbsp. maple syrup for an extra depth of flavor.
• The colder the butter, the more cakey the cookie will turn out. Use melted butter for a chewier cookie.
• Baking the cookie in a skillet allows the edges to be crunchy, yet the inside is soft because the cast iron pan retains heat better than most others.
