Skillet Chocolate Chip Brookie

Skillet Chocolate Chip Brookie

Here is a perfect one dish dessert that can be served family style or divided onto individual plates. Either way if you are a chocolate chip cookie lover, (like me) or a brownie lover (like me as well), you will love the combination of both in this deep dish skillet brookie. It has a rich, gooey chocolate-y brownie base with buttery chocolate chip cookie dough swirled and baked on top. It really is the best of both worlds. And what brings it all together is a topping of vanilla ice cream with a drizzle of our salted and chocolate caramel sauces. Two favorite treats, two favorite sauces, one perfect dessert! Enjoy!

  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cookie is golden brown and the edges begin to pull away from the sides of the skillet.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before serving if you want to eat it hot, or cool completely if you don't like melted ice cream!
  9. Top with scoops of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of salted and chocolate caramel sauces.
