Homemade Pizookie is SO GOOD!

Who doesn’t love a warm, gooey on the inside, chocolate chip cookie? This giant pizza cookie bakes in just minutes, and can be served fresh on the pan itself! Enjoy for two, or a giant chocolate chip cookie just for you! 

ingredients in pizookie laid out on a white counter
  • Butter: melted works best for this recipe
  • Sugar: we’ll use both granulated and brown sugar 
  • Egg: just the yolk from a large egg
  • Vanilla extract: to compliment the chocolate flavor
  • Baking soda: for leavening 
  • Salt: just a pinch to balance the sweetness
  • Flour: I like to sift my flour so my skillet cookie comes out fluffier
  • Chocolate chips: mini chips are perfect for this recipe but feel free to use any candy you like 

How to make a Pizookie Recipe

  1. Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray nonstick cooking spray on your mini cast iron skillet. 
  2. Mix: Melt the butter in a large bowl then stir in both sugars, egg yolk, vanilla extract, baking soda and salt. Carefully add in the flour then mix in the chocolate chips. 
  3. Bake: the mini cast iron skillet for about 18-24 minutes, or until the edges are puffed and the center no longer looks translucent. 
  4. Serve: warm, with lots of whipped cream or ice cream and sprinkles.

Variations

  • I’m a huge fan of ice cream and cookies together, so feel free to top this skillet cookie recipe off with your favorite ice cream! 
  • If you don’t have a skillet, you can use a 6” cake pan, and 8×4” loaf pan, or make individual cookies in a muffin pan. 

Expert Tips

The cookie will fall slightly after baking, as it cools. This is normal. The more underbaked you make it the more it will fall (which is totally fine by me, we love this a bit underbaked and gooey).

FAQs

How do I make a pizookie recipe without a skillet?

If you don’t have a skillet, you can use a 6” cake pan, and 8×4” loaf pan, or make individual cookies in a muffin pan.

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes, you can! Just refrigerate the dough in a bowl and cover the top with a plastic wrap. Or store in an airtight container.

Make this Small Batch Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie any time you want a chocolate chip cookie for 2! Warm, gooey, and full of chocolate it’s an easy, one bowl recipe!
Total Time 30 minutes
Yield 2 servings
Serving Size 1 serving

Ingredients
 

  • ¼ cup (57g) butter , melted
  • 8 teaspoons (38g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (62g) all purpose flour
  • cup (56g) mini chocolate chips or other chocolate chips or candy

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. You will need a 6.25” mini cast iron skillet to make this cookie as shown. If you don’t have a skillet, you can use a 6” cake pan, and 8×4” loaf pan, or make individual cookies in a muffin pan. If you are using a skillet, cake, or loaf pan, spray it with nonstick cooking spray. If you’re using a muffin pan, use liners for easy removal and serving (it will probably make about 4 muffin sized cookies).
  • Melt butter in a large bowl. Stir in both sugars, then egg yolk, extract, baking soda and salt. Carefully stir in the flour then mix in the chocolate chips.
  • Optional: add 1/3 cup of ANY kind of chips or candy instead of the mini chips called for, if you wish.
  • Bake the mini cast iron skillet for about 18-24 minutes, or until the edges are puffed and the center no longer looks translucent. Using another pan will affect baking time.
  • Serve warm, with lots of whipped cream or ice cream and sprinkles.

Recipe Notes

The cookie will fall slightly after baking, as it cools. This is normal. The more underbaked you make it the more it will fall (which is totally fine by me, we love this a bit underbaked and gooey).

  1. This cookie is so buttery, chewy and delicious 😋 Also, easy to make. For a chocolate chip cookie fix, this is a keeper

  2. Any idea if I could put all the dry ingredients in a mason jar for gift giving? Does the sequence of adding melted butter and egg yolk make a difference?

  3. Hi! I’m thinking of making this in a 6inch cake pan. Could I pls know how much the height of the pan should be? I don’t want it to overflow

    1. At least 1-inch high is fine, the skillet I’m using in the photos is only about 5-6 inches around.

  4. Absolutely love hearing from
    You snd trying your recipes, which will always be better when you make them lol. Thanks for sharing though
