If only you could quickly satisfy your craving for homemade cookies without having to take the time to individually scoop out the cookie dough on to the baking pan. Well, you can! This recipe from Eatingwell, allows you to bake one giant chocolate chip cookie in a skillet to serve up 12 wedges of chocolatey goodness. Most importantly, the servings have crispy edges and a soft, gooey inside and they’re even good for you.
This Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie recipe uses whole-wheat pastry flour which retains the nutrients of the bran and germ and helps to make a tender whole grain bakery item. The whole oats are a nutritious addition to this recipe, increasing the soluble fiber content and the antioxidant rich dark chocolate gives it another nutrient punch.
