Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 8 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips or other chocolate chips or candy

Equipment

  • Oven
  • 8-inch cast iron skillet or oven-safe baking dish
  • Mixing bowls
  • Spatula or wooden spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat the Oven
    Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your Pizookie bakes evenly from the start.
  2. Step 2: Melt the Butter
    In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter until it’s completely liquid. Allow it to cool slightly before proceeding to the next step.
  3. Step 3: Mix the Sugars
    In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Step 4: Add the Egg Yolk and Vanilla
    Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
  5. Step 5: Combine Dry Ingredients
    In another bowl, whisk together the baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour. This step helps to evenly distribute the leavening agent.
  6. Step 6: Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients
    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to a tough texture.
  7. Step 7: Fold in Chocolate Chips
    Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips or any candy of your choice. This is where your Pizookie gets its delicious, gooey chocolatey goodness!
  8. Step 8: Bake
    Pour the batter into your prepared skillet or baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is still soft.
  9. Step 9: Serve Hot
    Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before adding a generous scoop of ice cream on top. Enjoy your Pizookie while it’s warm!

Notes

  • You can prepare the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Cover leftovers with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
  • Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to regain the warm, gooey texture.
