Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg + 1 yolk (beaten)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Add-ins

  • 1 cup chocolate chips & chunks


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the cookie skillet.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a hand mixer or wooden spoon until blended smoothly. Add pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and beaten eggs, mixing well until fully incorporated.
  3. Add dry ingredients: Gradually add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and kosher salt to the wet mixture. Mix gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
  4. Fold in chocolate: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chunks using a spoon or spatula, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  5. Transfer to skillet: Spoon the dough into a 9-inch cast iron skillet. Spread it evenly to fill the skillet surface. Optionally sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top for an attractive finish.
  6. Bake: Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are puffed and golden and the center is set but still soft.
  7. Cool and serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Slice into wedges and serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.

Notes

  • Treat your family to an easy seasonal dessert featuring comforting pumpkin and warm spices.
  • The cast iron skillet gives a rustic presentation and helps create crispy edges with a chewy center.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert experience.
  • Be careful not to overbake to keep the center soft and chewy.
  • You can substitute pumpkin pie spice with a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves if unavailable.
