A Chocolate Chip Cookie is a drop cookie that
features chocolate chips or chocolate morsels as its distinguishing
ingredient.
Chocolate chip cookies originated in the United States around
1938, when Ruth Graves Wakefield chopped up a Nestlé
semi-sweet chocolate bar and added the chopped chocolate to a cookie
recipe.
Skip the baking sheets and grab your skillet for a
crowd-friendly recipe for The Ultimate Skillet Chocolate Chip
Cookie.Skillet cookie, cookie sundae, pizookie—no matter what you call
it, one thing is certain:
warm cookie + ice cream = dessert perfection! It’s hard
to beat that view below. The vanilla bean ice cream slowly melting into
every nook and cranny of melted chocolate, chewy cookie dough and
crunchy sea salt. Don’t forget that last part! The addition of the sea
salt is what takes this family favorite skillet chocolate chip cookie
from amazing to oh-so-spectacular.
I’ve opted for chopped semisweet chocolate in this variation, but you
can let your imagination run wild when it comes to chocolate varieties.
I love a combo of semisweet and dark chocolate chunks so you get
that duo of cacao flavors.
