Sweet Take: How to Make A Phenomenal Skillet Cookie Sundae

Sweet treats have always been a weakness of mine. I can’t even begin to count the times when my diets have been foiled by a tasty macaroon teasing me at the baker’s display window or suddenly finding myself spoon-deep in a bowl of delicious pudding. If Superman has kryptonite, then a trip to Ben and Jerry’s is mine.  Luckily for me, I am currently not in a dieting mood. So when I craved for some sugar-wolfing last week, I decided to go really big. Going big means one thing in my household – a huge serving of skillet cookie sundae! Boy, was it a pleasure to gobble up that chewy, chocolatey, creamy, and warm goodness while binge-watching season after season of Stranger Things.

So, allow me to share with you one of the stars among my fall recipes – a phenomenal skillet cookie sundae that will surely delight sweet-toothed maniacs out there!

Tips For Enjoying Your Skillet Cookie Sundae

Typically, I like to eat mine just with a scoop of ice cream and chocolate syrup. But sometimes, when I’m feeling a bit fun I like to add some rainbow sprinkles just for the heck of it! Other optional toppings are fruits, maple syrup, or some candied walnuts.

Ingredients

For the Graham Cracker Layer 

• 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers turned into crumbs
• 6 tbsp butter unsalted, melted and cooled

For the Cookie Dough

• 1 1/2 sticks butter unsalted, melted and cooled
• 1 whole egg
• 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup dark brown sugar
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• ice cream for serving

Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

To Make the Graham Cracker Layer:

• In a large bowl, place the melted butter along with the granulated sugar.
• With a spatula, start stirring in your graham cracker crumbs until it is moist.
• Get a cast-iron skillet (10 inches) and press the graham cracker crumbs mixture in it. Evenly sprinkle it with chocolate chips. Set aside.

For the Cookie Dough Layer:

• Get a large bowl and whisk the brown sugar and melted butter together.
• Add the vanilla extract, egg, and egg yolk and start whisking until the whole thing is combined well.
• Start adding your flour, baking powder, and salt then start mixing using a spatula. Evenly sprinkle the shredded coconut and chocolate chips after.
• Spread the cookie dough evenly over the graham cracker crust. Put it in your oven for about 25 to 30 minutes. Make sure that the cookie is a bit gooey in the middle but with golden brown edges. Remove and let it cool for about five minutes.
• Top it off with a scoop of ice cream (flavor depends on you, but I like mine plain old vanilla.)
