What’s super easy to whip up, tastes delicious, and makes a chocolate lover like me weak at the knees? Yep, you’ve got it! Here’s my double chocolate skillet cookie recipe. Crispy on the outside with a gooey chocolate fudgy center, just the way I like my skillet cookies to be!
Ingredients
- 200g unsalted butter at room temperature
- 2/3 c white sugar
- 2/3 c brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extractÂ
- 2 c plain flour
- 1/4 c Dutch cocoa
- 3/4 tsp sea salt flakes
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 300g dark chocolate chips
- 80g walnuts, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius. Grease an enamel cast iron skillet with butter and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients, except sugars in a bowl. Give it a quick whisk to combine and pop aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter & sugars for 2 minutes on medium speed till combined. Add eggs one at a time and the vanilla extract. Beat well after each addition.
- Add the flour mixture one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. On low speed, add chocolate chips and chopped walnuts. Lightly mix (about 20 seconds should do it).Â
- Press the cookie dough mixture into an even layer in the buttered skillet. Pop into the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes until you’ve got crispy edges and a gooey centre.
- Serve with a few scoops of ice cream and a few spoons!
Notes
I like to bake this double chocolate skillet cookie with a good bit of chocolate fudge in the center and a nice crisp outer edge. Feel free to adjust the bake time depending on how gooey you like the center. For me, I find 35 minutes is perfect, however if you prefer a more cake-like skillet cookie, then 40 minutes + may be more your style.
Be sure to baste your skillet well with butter so you can easily portion if needed. Plus it saves on washing up!
Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
