This has become my favorite meal recently – I’ve cooked it several times this month!

There’s something truly comforting about a warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie fresh from the oven, and when it’s baked in a skillet, it becomes a delightful centerpiece for any family gathering. The chocolate chip cookie skillet is a beloved treat that combines the nostalgia of homemade cookies with the rustic charm of a cast iron skillet. It’s perfect for sharing and makes for a cozy dessert that’s sure to bring smiles to the table. Whether you’re looking to impress guests or simply indulge in a sweet treat with your loved ones, this recipe is a must-try.

This chocolate chip cookie skillet pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top. For a bit of contrast, you might consider serving it with a side of fresh berries or a drizzle of caramel sauce. A warm cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk makes for a perfect accompaniment, enhancing the comforting experience of this delightful dessert.
