Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Chocolate Chips

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
  3. Preheat Oven and Skillet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 10-12 inch oven-safe skillet to prevent sticking.
  4. Transfer Dough to Skillet: Press the cookie dough evenly into the prepared skillet, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake the Cookie: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center looks set but still soft.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the cookie to cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy scooping out portions with a spoon or slicing into wedges.

Notes

  • You can substitute dark chocolate chips or mix in white chocolate chips for variety.
  • Serving the cookie warm enhances the melty chocolate chip experience.
  • Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, warm in the oven or microwave briefly.
