Pick Your Chocolate

When you make this recipe, the kind of chocolate chips you use is completely up to you.

You could use my favorite – dark chocolate chips. Or you could pick some classic semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips. Have chocolate chunks in the pantry? Use those!

Got some butterscotch or peanut butter chips? Maybe go crazy and add in a mix of them. It’s your cookie skillet. Have fun with it.

Quick Tip!

When you are lining a pan with parchment paper, it can be a challenge to get the paper to shape to the edges or corners of the pan. Here’s my secret!

Crumple up your parchment paper into a ball like you’re going to throw it away. Then open it back up, smooth it out, and put it in your pan.

Now it will shape itself the way you needed it to…and stay.

If it is at all stubborn, you can also put the paper under the water faucet for a moment, then shake off the water and form it into the pan. Works every time!

Fancy Dessert Option!

Now this cookie bar recipe is one that you can use a couple of different ways. Cut the giant skillet cookie into bars, as you see here, and enjoy them that way.

Leave the cookie in the skillet whole. Top it with scoops of ice cream, chocolate syrup drizzle, maybe some whipped cream and chopped pecans, and you will have an incredible dessert for the whole family!
