Showsthe Chewrecipeschocolate Chip Pecan Skillet Cookie Sundaes Carla Hall

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cream together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Add the vanilla and eggs, mixing well. Combine the flour, instant coffee, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 batches, mixing after each one. Stir in the milk and semisweet chocolate chips.
• Spread the mixture into a 10-inch skillet and bake until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven, top the cookie with several scoops of your favorite ice cream, drizzle on some hot fudge and top with whipped cream and a cherry.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat, 2 to 3 minutes, then set aside to cool 5 minutes. Whisk the brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl until smooth. Pour in the butter from the skillet and whisk until combined. Do not wipe out the skillet.
• Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl. Stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture with a rubber spatula until just incorporated, being careful not to overmix. Stir in all but 1/4 cup of the pecans.
• Scrape the dough into the buttered skillet, gently spreading it to the edges and making the top even. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup pecans on top and press lightly with the rubber spatula to make them stick to the dough. Bake until the top is cracked, the edges are slightly browned and crisp and the center is still soft when gently pressed, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the skillet on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve warm with ice cream if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine butter and sugars with a wooden spoon. Stir in egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir in chips. Transfer to a 10-inch cast-iron skillet; smooth top.
• Bake until cookie is golden brown and just set in the center, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.
