This recipe was inspired by my favorite Brunch Place in Delhi, The Grammar Room. They serve these beautiful skillet cookies with warm milk just as you would prepare them for Santa. However, this rendition has toffee vanilla ice cream on top and it makes for an appetizing dessert, especially if you love gooey cookies.
World of Cookies
I absolutely love cookies. I think they are easier to prepare than cakes. They last longer – ranging from 10 days to almost two weeks if stored in correct conditions. Longevity meets versatility is the perfect way to describe cookies. As I wrote my love for cookies before, this blog has few cookie recipes which you would enjoy making as well.
Here are some more cookie recipes from the blog for you:
Skillet Cookie
Add Ice Cream or Milk on top – which would further soften these cookies, and will make you fall in love with these.
Which Cast Iron Skillet I Can Use?
Generally, skillet cookies are made in bigger pans like 9 or 12 inches. However, as you are know – I like to bake in smaller batches. Due to which, I have baked my skillet cookie is a mere 6 inch Pan.
Your Cast Iron Pan needs to Oven Friendly, most of which are. If you only have a 9 or 12 inch Skillet with you, multiply the recipe by 1.5x and 2x respectively.
Although, if you too like you desserts in smaller batches, click here to go to the amazon link for 6 inch skillet pan.
Which Chocolate Chips Can I Use?
There are a variety of Chocolate Chips available in the market, ranging from gourmet to basic. You may use any chocolate chips you have at home – be it white, milk or dark. For this one, I used twin chocolate chips, from urban platter. These ones are a blended mix of both white and dark chocolate, giving me flavors from both in my cookie. Attaching the link here.
