- Cooking Method: Baking

- Cook Time: 20 minutes
- Cuisine Type: Dessert
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg yolk
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ⅛ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cornstarch
- Pinch of salt
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Yes, now!
- In a mini, oven-safe skillet (about 5 inches), melt the butter over medium heat. No fire alarms, please!
- Once melted, remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in both sugars and vanilla extract. Act like it’s a sugar party!
- Add the egg yolk and mix until well combined. Think silky smooth, not scrambled egg.
- Add flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Stir to form the dough. It’s a workout, but worth it.
- Fold in chocolate chips. Scatter them like you’re making a treasure map.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until the edges are golden, but the center is still slightly soft. Crispy edge lovers unite!
- Let it cool for about 5 minutes if you can resist. Then, dig in right from the skillet with a spoon. Sharing optional!
Suggestions
- Swap chocolate chips for white chocolate, peanut butter chips, or even a broken candy bar. Go wild!
- Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce. Decadence level: expert.
- If your kitchen lacks a mini skillet, use an oven-safe ramekin or a small baking dish. Adapt, improvise, overcome!
