Ingredients
Scale
1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup (130g) chocolate chips
Vanilla ice cream, for topping
Chocolate sauce, for drizzling
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Press the cookie dough evenly into an 8-inch oven-safe skillet.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set but still soft.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
Top with scoops of vanilla ice cream and drizzle with chocolate sauce.
Serve warm, straight from the skillet.
Notes
Use a cast iron or oven-safe skillet for even baking.
Don’t overbake—leave the center slightly underdone for a gooey texture.
Customize with nuts, peanut butter chips, or other mix-ins.
