Cast Iron Skillet Cookie

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, I’m sharing this oh so cute, super adorable Cast Iron Skillet Cookie recipe that can be made in a regular-sized cast iron, or two mini skillets allowing you to have one for sharing, and one for yourself….er, or for gifting I mean.

But more importantly, I’m sharing the recipe for a good cause because it is part of this year’s Cookies for Kids’ Cancer annual Valentine’s event. This is the fifth year for our event (here’s my previous year contributions: Valentine’s Day Mug Hug Cookies and these Peppermint Brownie Cookies ) and we want to continue to make a difference in the fight against pediatric cancer.

Skillet Cookie Cake

Cancer is the #1 cause of death of children by disease in the U.S. There are 40,000 U.S. children actively battling cancer right now. The National Cancer Institute’s budget for childhood cancer is less than 4%. It’s such a small number and that’s why I got involved.

And with the ongoing pandemic, children are still being diagnosed with cancer. It’s imperative that we raise awareness and continue to raise funds to fund the ongoing pediatric cancer research!

Help us make a difference by donating to Cookies for Kids’ Cancer!

Our goal is to raise at least $3000. Because these three companies: OXO, Mediavine and Dixie Crystals have each pledged to match our donations raised through this campaign up to $3000! That means when we raise $1, it turns into $4!

Thank you to so many of you who have already donated, please help us reach our goal so we can get the full matching donations and help us make an even huge difference!

Cast Iron Skillet Cookie

What I love about this recipe is its versatility. Feeling like one giant skillet cookie? Bake in a 10 inch cast iron skillet. Not feeling like eating quite so much at one time, divide the recipe into two smaller skillets and enjoy one yourself, while sharing the other with a neighbor or friend.  

The mini skillets are the perfect size for a sweet ending to date night in, and especially festive for Valentine’s Day with festive colored M&Ms.

Cast Iron Skillet Cookie

Yield: 12 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Perfect for date night in and especially for Valentine's Day by adding pink and red M&Ms, this easy Cast Iron Skillet Cookie is easy, delicious and super fun to share!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large egg, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chip morsels/ chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup M&Ms (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10 inch (or 2- 6 inch skillets) cast iron skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Beat the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking and salt; gradually beat into sugar mixture. Gently stir in chocolate chunks and M&Ms. Spread the mixture into the prepared skillet(s).

Bake until toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a top that is golden brown. For mini skillets, about 30-35 mins. Serve warm with ice cream on top.

The combination of a warm (oversized) chocolate cookie combined with vanilla ice cream is hard to beat. It’s the perfect treat for sharing right out of the skillet. Why bother with plates? Just grab two spoons and dive on in. 

Cast Iron Skillet Cookie for Two

The combinations are endless as well. Chocolate chips or chocolate chunks? M&Ms with peanuts or without? Sprinkled with sea salt or left plain? To pecan or not to pecan? Extra drizzle of chocolate syrup? You certainly could! 

Be sure to visit the other bloggers participating in the Valentine’s Day event and check out their recipes!

I'm not even going to complain about how cold it h I'm not even going to complain about how cold it has been in Louisiana when friends are having it so bad in Texas, but y'all... I had to pull out and dust off my Alaskan cruise clothes when we lost power earlier in the week. 🥶 We just aren't equipped down here. I've had ALL THE SOUPS on rotation including this Slow Cooker Chicken Noodle that has been on the blog forever, but got some new photos. Because if you're gonna be iced in, might as well photograph & update your recipes! I hope you are staying WARM where you are. 🥣 🐔 🥣

Hustle and heart may set you apart but Streusel To Hustle and heart may set you apart but Streusel Topped Banana Bread will get you outta bed. 🍌 🍞 🛏 High five for Friday and weekend breakfast on deck! PS: If you haven't sprinkled your streusel with turbinado sugar, you are missing out. It keeps the topping crunchy even after sealing the leftovers. 👏 🍞 👏

Temperatures are droppin' and my slow cooker is ho Temperatures are droppin' and my slow cooker is hoppin'! 🙌 Slow Cooker Cheeseburger Soup means you don't have to go outside to flip the burgers on the grill OR make your kitchen all burger-y by cooking indoors. 🍔 🥣 It’s also comfort food in a bowl and I think after the past few days, it's the perfect weekend embrace.

Slooooowly getting into the groove of 2021. Since Slooooowly getting into the groove of 2021. Since it's been so long since I've been able to enjoy a good ole’ Olive Garden soup, salad & breadsticks combo, I took matters into my own hands and recreated the experience at home complete with Pasta e Fagioli. 🥣 Side note: Did y'all know they sell their OG salad dressing at the grocery?! 😳 Since I'm also attempting to do better with meal prepping and make ahead meals this new year, I'm freezing half for the next time I have a craving I can't control...or the temps in Louisiana drop without warning. WINNING. 🙌🥣
