  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • silicone spatula
  • baking spray

Ingredients

For the cookie dough

  • ½ cup butter (softened)
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tablespoon milk (any kind, higher fat is better)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 1¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder
  • ⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted)
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

To make the cookie dough

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use the convection bake setting if you have it. Grease a 11-13" skillet with baking spray and set it aside.
  • In a medium-large sized mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the butter and brown sugar.
  • Add the milk, vanilla extract and egg. Mix until combined. Scrape down the bowl.
  • Add the salt and baking soda, then mix again until combined.
  • Add the flour, then mix until combined. Scrape down the bowl once complete.
  • Fold in ¾ cup of the chocolate chips, reserving ¼ cup for topping the skillet brookie.
  • Set the dough aside while you make the brownie batter.

To make the brownie batter

  • Place the butter in a medium-sized microwave safe bowl and heat it until melted.
  • Add sugar and use a hand or stand mixer to mix well (for about a minute).
  • Add the melted chocolate, vanilla extract and salt. Mix until combined. Scrape down the bowl.
  • Add the eggs and mix until combined.
  • Add the flour and cocoa powder and mix until combined. Scrape the bowl down once complete.

To assemble the Skillet Brookie

  • Use a spoon or a cookie scoop to scoop the cookie dough throughout the greased skillet. Press the dough down.
  • Use a spoon or a cookie scoop to spoon brownie batter around the cookie dough, filling any empty spaces in the skillet.
  • Use a spatula or butter knife to even out the brownie batter.
  • Top the dough with the reserved chocolate chips and bake.
  • Bake for 32-37 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with just a few wet crumbs on it (not raw dough or batter).
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and enjoy the dessert while it's warm!
