I'll just come right out and say it: this is my favorite recipe on the site so far. And it's not even really a new recipe: I took my recipe for 1 dozen chocolate chip cookies, pressed the dough into my grandmother's 6" pie pan and baked it for 30 minutes. It's perfect as-is, but you could decorate it with chocolate frosting (like those cookie cakes at the mall), or you could top it with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream right when it comes out of the oven.
I wish I could say I sliced it neatly like a pie and ate it on a pretty plate, but we did not. We hovered over the oven and attacked it with 2 forks as soon as the timer went off. The center is perfectly gooey like a soft-baked cookie while the edges set up nicely.
I know you'll enjoy this one. Go on, make it!

I'd take a fork and go straight to the middle! I love gooey fresh out of the oven cookies and I can only imagine this bad boy is super moist and chewy in the middle. And the crisp around the edges looks perfect! Can't wait to try this recipe!
Lauren@LittleYellowKitchen says
Wow! Sounds and looks fantasticly ooey gooey. I definitely would have skipped neatly plated slices too.
Karly says
Don't mind if I do.

I think a few other mentioned this, but I would like to echo the fact that your proportions may be off on this recipe. This is totally a cookie cake for one ;) Just kidding (not really.)
Christina says
Hah, Heather! You cracked me up! This is definitely a dessert I could eat all in one sitting by myself. The only reason I shared it is because I'm in love. If I didn't have such strong feelings for him, I would have waited until he has asleep and ate the whole thing myself! ;)
Heather {ModernMealsforTwo} says
Ha! That's true love! :)

I wouldn't be able to slice this up all nice and eat it either! Eating it out of the pan tastes so much better anyway!
Amanda @ Once Upon a Recipe says
Cookie cakes are my weakness. I would totally hover over the hot cookie, covered in melty ice cream, shoveling it in my face as quickly as possible, hopefully without burning all of my taste buds off. Dreamy.
Carlas Confections says
HAHA, isnt that exactly how it is suppose to be eaten ;) It really looks awesome!
Erin @ Dinners, Dishes and Desserts says
Underbake it, top it with ice cream straight from the oven, and you have my favorite dessert ever!
Love anything with chocolate chip cookies as a part of it!

Wanna know something sad? If I made this as is (in the 6 inch skillet and all I would probably eat 1/2 or maybe even 3/4 of it.
This looks absolutely phenomenal though. I love cookies that have been baked in round tins and whatnot. I feel they are chewier than normal cookies.
