Skillet Baked Halloween Chocolate Chip Cookie

October 7, 2013 · by Mega ·

For those of you that have never done a skillet cookie before, why not give this one a try? This chocolate chip cookie is America’s cookie, done a little differently! Baking a cookie skillet style just makes it more fun, less work, and easy to put a big scoop of ice cream on. 🙂

For those of you new to Megamommy, WELCOME!

If you don’t know this already, I love skillet cookies, cakes, and brownies. So does my family. I used to hear about skillet cookies when I was a little girl. Then several years ago I saw Martha do one. At the time I thought hmm, but why?

Now, I say why not? They turn out get every time and it’s so easy to throw a skillet cookie in the oven before you cook your meal. Then you have a delicious dessert just waiting for you after dinner. 🙂

Hope you enjoy this my friends!

You know I love to keep things simple. However, when it comes to my skillet cookies I usually use my home-made cookie dough.

If you don’t want to, or can’t for whatever reason that day, that’s fine don’t sweat it. You always use refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough if it works better for you.

The vanilla pudding mix is the little secret that helps the cookies remain soft and chewy.

If you don’t already do this, it is the cornstarch in the pudding that does the job. Plus, I love the extra vanilla flavor the pudding mix gives the dough.

My grandma used to tell me about this as a kid. Only she wasn’t fond of spending the extra money to buy pudding mix only to be used for making cookies. She just considered it a waste of money.

Personally, I almost always have a small jar of instant vanilla pudding mix in my pantry that I use in my baking for a number of different things.

Different times, different approaches, right?
