How to make a Pumpkin Skillet Cookie?
This is made like most other cookie recipes, but instead of rolling it out into cookie balls, you just press it all into a skillet.
Start by creaming together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Then add in the vanilla and pumpkin puree. Add in all the dry ingredients until you have a nice soft pumpkinny cookie dough.
Then fold in the chocolate chips, and press it all into the prepared skillet. Bake it up until the edges are golden. Top it with ice cream and enjoy!
Tips for making a Pumpkin Skillet Cookie:
- Instead of loading your cookie with chocolate chips, it would also be delicious with white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, cinnamon, etc.
- Don’t overbake this dessert, you want the edges to be golden brown and crispy, but the middle is slightly under baked, soft and gooey.
- Drizzle it with some chocolate or caramel syrup.
- If you have any leftovers (only possible if you don’t add ice cream on top of the whole thing) you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 4 days.
This pumpkin skillet cookie is the perfect warm pumpkin dessert. It’s lightly pumpkinny, perfectly pumpkin spiced, gooey, and delicious!
