All the delicious goodness of a chocolate chip cookie, extra gooey and extra large!

I was craving cookies but did not want to bake in batches so I just put it all in 10 inch cast iron skillet. Big scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and I am good to go :)

We received a free dessert on our anniversary. It was a wonderful hot fudge cookie skillet. I was inspired to buy the mini skillets and do my best to duplicate the dessert.

it’s got everything a cookie lover could possibly ask for. With a texture that is slightly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, it’s a favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe that’s been top-rated by hundreds of satisfied home cooks.

We are all always hunting for that elusive beast, "the perfect chocolate chip cookie". I'm not going to tell you this recipe is perfect by any means, and as it's written it's "cookie bars", not straight up cookies - although I do have a note at the end for the option of making cookies. I make bars because as a busy mom spreading my dough out in a cake pan and throwing it into the oven is faster than making batch after batch of individual cookies, waiting for my cookie sheets to cool between each batch, and lugging the dough in and out of the fridge to ensure the cookies don't spread ridiculously.What I WILL tell you is that this recipe is my own compilation of my favorite aspects of a variety of cookie recipes I've tried over the years, and we think it's delicious. And be prepared for open gooey yummyness, cause that's ehat you're gonna get with these!
