Cast Iron Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cake Recipe

Need a quick and easy birthday cake go to? A cast-iron chocolate chip cookie dough cake never disappoints! Everything is better in cast iron!

Equipment

  • 8 inch Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1⅓ cup Butter softened
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 3 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 12 oz Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Cream together sugars and butter with a mixer.
  • Add in eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
  • Mix dry ingredients of flour, salt, baking soda together.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
  • Fold in or mix in the chocolate chips.
  • Grease your cast iron skillet with butter.
  • Press your mixed dough into your cast iron about 1 inch thick and all the way to the edges. My 8 inch cast iron uses about 2/3-3-4 of the dough in the recipe.
  • Store any excess dough in the fridge and use within a few days, or put it in the freezer for longer keeping.
  • Baking time is very dependent on the thickness of your cookie cake and size of cast iron. Bake anywhere from 30-40 minutes or until the top begins to turn a light golden brown and does not look doughy.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest and cool. If you plan to put icing on your cake, wait until it has completely cooled first.
  • Enjoy!
