Notes

Tips for the Perfect Single Serve Skillet Cookie

  • Soft and Chewy: Avoid overbaking; the center should remain slightly undercooked for a fudgy texture.
  • Nutella Swirls: Add Nutella in small spoonfuls and swirl lightly for a marble effect without fully mixing.
  • Microwave Option: If using a microwave, watch carefully—overcooking can make the cookie dry.
  • Serving Suggestion: Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.

Variations to Try

Peanut Butter Swirl

Replace Nutella with peanut butter for a creamy, nutty twist.

Espresso Chocolate Chip

Add 1/4 teaspoon instant coffee powder to the batter to intensify chocolate flavor.

Fruit & Chocolate

Mix in a few raspberries or chopped strawberries with chocolate chips for a fruity touch.

Coconut Delight

Add 1 teaspoon shredded coconut to the batter for texture and aroma.

Storage Tips

This recipe is best enjoyed fresh and warm. However:

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.
  • Reheat in the microwave for 10–15 seconds before serving.

Fun Fact

Skillet cookies, also known as “pizookies,” originated in America and became popular in restaurants as giant cookies served straight from the pan. This single-serve version brings that restaurant indulgence into your own kitchen, perfectly portioned and egg-free.
