Chocolate Chunk and Marshmallow Skillet Cookie
Cookies are my favorite dessert. I love that I can pick them up and don’t need a fork! But this time I was inspired to make the ultimate cookie- a chocolate chunk and marshmallow skillet cookie! And it is so good, I don’t even care that I need a fork!
I think the ingredient that makes this cookie so amazing is the marshmallow- it is so sweet and decadent! It also gives the cookie an awesome texture. Combine that with a scoop of ice cream on top, and it is an amazing dessert! I found the recipe on Walmart’s Sizzling Summer Recipe series- there are some awesome recipes!
The cookie starts off like most cookies- mixing the wet ingredients and sugars, and then adding the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Next, fold in the chocolate chunks and marshmallows- but make sure to reserve a few!
Finally, spread the mixture in a 12 inch cast iron skillet and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chunks and marshmallows on the top. Then comes the hard part- bake for 50 minutes and allow to cool for 30! During this waiting period, I am usually eating a little cookie dough that “didn’t fit in the skillet”- yes, I know this is bad for me and I shouldn’t do it, but it is so good!
When the cookie comes out and has cooled, add ice cream and chocolate sauce to the top. Share with the family or hoard it all for yourself! This is a great dessert for birthday parties or family get togethers! Do you see those caramelized marshmallows in the picture above? That is my favorite part- a little chewy, a little crunchy, and super sweet. Just the way I like my cookie!
