Decadent giant chocolate chip cookie recipe that is sure to win over your entire family. It is both soft and sweet, plus incredibly simple to bake in a cast iron skillet!
Preheat oven to 350° F and prepare your cast iron. If it is well seasoned, you shouldn’t need to grease it. However, I you could use a little bit of coconut oil spray. Or parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Using a whisk, combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl, set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, vanilla and sugar using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until combined, light and creamy.
Add the egg and mix on medium speed until well combined.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients a little at a time and combine well with the mixer.
Use a spatula to fold in the peanut butter chips and the chocolate chips.
Add the cookie dough to your cast iron skillet. Try to roll it out as evenly as you can. I used a 10″ cast iron skillet, but you can use a larger or smaller one if that’s all you have. Just be sure to adjust the baking time.
Bake for about 35-45 minutes. Or until your cookie is golden brown and center is baked through.
Allow to cool before cutting. Enjoy!
Notes
As tempting as it is to dive right in to the skillet cookie, allow it to cool completely before slicing. This will help prevent it from breaking apart.
