Skillet Cookie

I bought a mini cast iron skillet with the intention of using it for desserts.  I never used it.  I did, however, use a 12" skillet for the first time to make a Skillet Cookie.

The original recipe stated to mix the ingredients in the pan and chill part of the recipe, but I instead mixed the ingredients in a separate bowl, and skipped the chilling completely.

The end result was still an amazing cookie!

I imagine you can take nearly any favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and simply place the dough in a cast iron skillet to make one gigantic cookie.
