Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie

Nate and I love cast iron skillet cookies.  A chocolate chip cookie with a hint of bacon-y grease flavor.  Can you get any better than that?

You can.  Add pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice to it.  We don’t mess around here at Décor and the Dog.

I suppose you could make this in any regular ol’ pan.  But don’t.  Get yourself a cast iron skillet.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cast Iron Skillet Cookie

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice and salt.  Set aside. Cream butter and sugars until mixture is light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and pumpkin; mix until they are fully incorporated. Add flour mixture.  Beat until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.

Transfer dough to a 10-inch ovenproof skillet (lightly greased) and spread to cover the bottom of the pan. Bake until edges are brown and top is golden, 25-30 minutes. Don't over bake.  It will continue to cook out of the oven. Transfer to a wire rack to cool in pan.  Cut into wedges.

Enjoy!

I’ve had some questions about our cast iron skillet.  We have the Lodge Logic  12" Pre-Seasoned Skillet. We’ve had ours for a couple of years now and it keeps getting better with age!

Are you a cast iron skillet cookie fan?  How about pumpkin?  I can’t quit the pumpkin.  Wait, I’m eating vegetables.  Awesome.
