Equipment
- 12" Cast Iron Skillet
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup shortening
- 2 cups oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ package semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoon water
- ½ cup butter
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Mix both sugar, eggs, vanilla, water, butter and shortening in a stand mixer on low.
- Add oats, chocolate chips, baking powder, sugar, flour, baking soda and salt to stand mixer and continue to mix on low until well combined.
- Spoon small balls of dough with a 2" scoop onto a 12" Cast Iron Skillet. This could take as many as two 12" skillets to bake the full amount of cookie dough.
- Bake for 7 to 10 minutes until the edges are crispy and the center is golden brown.
Notes
- Let the dough rest in the fridge for 30 minutes to prevent spreading and create extra chewy cookies.
- Use a cookie scoop to ensure evenly sized cookies that bake uniformly. If you don’t have a scoop you can use a tablespoon measure.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months for later enjoyment
