Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet with butter or non-stick cooking spray. You can also use a standard 9-inch cake pan if you don't have a skillet.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and cocoa powder until thoroughly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cookie cake tough.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared cast iron skillet with a spatula or your hands.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. The edges should be set, and the center should be slightly gooey. Be careful not to overbake.
Allow the cookie cake to cool in the skillet for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
- You can mix in 1 cup of dark chocolate chips or chunks into the dough before baking for an extra chocolatey treat.
- Top with a sprinkle of sea salt before serving for a gourmet touch.
Tips:
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature before you start mixing. This will help it incorporate better with the sugar and eggs.
- Do not overmix the batter once you add the flour. Overmixing can result in a tough cookie cake.
- Ensure your skillet is well-greased to prevent the cookie cake from sticking. You can use butter or a non-stick cooking spray.
- For an added touch, consider mixing in some chocolate chips or chunks before baking.
- Allow the cookie cake to cool for a few minutes before slicing to help it set, but serve it warm for that perfect, gooey texture.
There you have it – a delicious Dark Chocolate Skillet Cookie Cake that's easy to make and delightful to eat. The combination of butter, sugar, cocoa powder, and a hint of vanilla creates a heavenly dessert that's impossible to resist. Don't forget to serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream to make it even more indulgent. Enjoy your cookie cake warm with your loved ones, and watch it disappear in no time!
