    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    A copycat of the "pizookie" from BJ's restaurant. A warm cookie straight out of the oven that is topped with ice cream? Yes please!  This Cast Iron Skillet Cookie is the ultimate dessert, and easier to create than you think!  Let us show you how!

    What is a Cast Iron Skillet Cookie?

    This is a copycat of a popular dessert at the restaurant B.J.'s.  They call it a pizookie, because it resembles a deep dish pizza in cookie form.  A casting iron skillet cookie is just what is sounds like - a cookie made in a skillet.  It is topped with ice cream and chocolate sauce.

    What Do I Need To Add To My Grocery List TO Make a Cast Iron Skillet Cookie?

    For this recipe you'll need the following:

    • 1 cup butter melted
    • ¾ cup sugar
    • 1 cup brown sugar packed
    • 2 eggs
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    • 2 ¼ cups flour
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • 2 ½ cups semi sweet chocolate chips in various sizes (chunk, morsels, minis)

    Ingredients needed to make a pizookie.

    How Do You Make a Cast Iron Skillet Cookie?

    The secret to those crispy edges and soft center in a skillet cookie is melting your butter before creating your recipe.  I know it sounds crazy - because melted butter in a regular cookie will create pancake flat cookies.  But melted butter in a skillet cookie is perfection.

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In your kitchenaid stand mixer combine butter and sugars and cream together.

    2. Add eggs and vanilla, mix to combine.

    3. Add flour.

    4. Sprinkle in salt, and baking soda. Mix until combined.

    4. Stir in chocolate chips.

    6. Divide into thirds and smooth each portion into an 8.5 inch skillet. Bake for 18-20 minutes until center is set and edges are golden. See notes for different baking times based on skillet size.

    Cast Iron Skillet Cookie Q&A

    Can I make these ahead?

    You can make these up to 24 hours ahead.  Refrigerate in an airtight container.  Bring to room temperature before baking.

    How long do skillet cookies last?

    If you forgo that ice cream - skillet cookies last about 2 days. Store wrapped in plastic wrap on the counter. You can reheat by placing foil over the top and baking for 5 minutes.
