Ingredients

  • 2 cups 2 tbsp Flour
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter melted
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • ½ cup Granulated White Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1-1½ cup Semi-Sweet or Dark Chocolate Chips
  • Flaky Sea Salt to garnish

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a medium size mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt, set aside.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, add butter and microwave for about 30 to 45 seconds, or until most has melted. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
  • Add melted butter, granulated white sugar and brown sugar to a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer until well blended.
  • Add in the eggs, vanilla and mix until combined.
  • Gradually stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt, just until combined.
  • Gently fold chocolate chips.
  • In a 8" or 10" cast iron skillet, or oven-safe skillet, press in the cookie dough - see notes section.
  • Bake for 45 to 55 min, or until the cookie is golden brown - see notes sections. Do not over-bake your cookie (see note section above), it will continue to cook in the hot skillet when its removed from the oven as the skillet retains heat.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top, and allow to cool in the skillet, before cutting - I suggest a 20 min cooling period.
  • Slice or spoon out your portion, and serve with a cold glass of milk or vanilla ice cream.
  • Serve while warm & enjoy!

Notes

A. I used an 8" cast-iron skillet, the larger, or wider your skillet is, the less time it will take to bake as an 8" cookie is more dense than a 12". Adjust cooking time accordingly.
