- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 Tbs. vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups (8 oz.) dark or semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
Melt the butter in 12-inch cast iron or other ovenproof skillet over low heat. Remove the pan from the heat and let sit 5 minutes.
Stir in the sugars until blended, then the eggs and vanilla. Stir in the flour mixture and fold in the chocolate chips and nuts. Wipe the top edge of the skillet or the sides with a damp paper towel to remove excess flour.
Bake until the cookie center just set, 2o to 25 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Mini Skillet Cookies: Use mini (3-½ inch) cast-iron skillets for making individual servings. Divide the batter among 8 pans, and bake on a rimmed baking sheet for easy handling. They’ll be done about 10 minutes sooner than the cookie.
