Cookie Dough
- 1 cup (220g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup (200g) light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs + 1 egg yolk
- 2 3/4 cups (360g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 1/2 cups (275g) semisweet or dark chocolate chips, divided
Nutella Swirl
- 1/2 cup (120g) Nutella (or chocolate SunButter for a nut free option)
- Prepare the dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the room temperature unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, eggs, and egg yolk, mixing thoroughly after each addition to ensure a smooth, homogenous batter.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and kosher salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until fully incorporated to avoid overworking the dough.
- Add chocolate chips: Fold in 1 cup of the semisweet or dark chocolate chips into the cookie dough evenly. Reserve the remaining 1/2 cup for topping.
- Preheat skillet and oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with butter or non-stick spray.
- Assemble the cookie pie: Spread the cookie dough evenly into the prepared skillet. Dollop the Nutella in small spoonfuls over the top of the dough. Using a knife or skewer, swirl the Nutella gently through the dough to create a marbled effect.
- Add remaining chocolate chips: Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips evenly over the top of the dough and Nutella swirl.
- Bake: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake for a chewy center).
- Cool and serve: Allow the cookie pie to cool in the skillet for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
Notes
- Ensure butter is at room temperature for smooth creaming with sugars.
- Do not overmix the dough after adding flour to keep the cookie tender.
- For a nut-free version, use chocolate SunButter instead of Nutella.
- Slice and serve while warm for best gooey texture.
- Store leftovers wrapped tightly in the skillet or an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving.
