What is a Pizookie

Pizookie is kind of a strange name, but the idea is that it is a combination between “pizza” and “cookie” — or a giant chocolate chip cookie baked in a cast iron skillet and served just the same way.

The center is going to be a little gooey, while the edges are crispy, so it’s great for eating right out of the pan while it’s still warm. I can’t think of a better way to end a long day!

A pizookie is an easy dessert that is also totally customizable, perfect for using up whatever chocolate bars, chocolate chips, nuts or candies you have lying around the house!

How to Make a Pizookie

This recipe is quick and simple to make, and loved by everyone! With just 3 simple steps you can make this delicious comforting dessert.

  • Prepare cookie dough (per recipe below) or swap out for your favorite store bought brand!
  • Evenly spread cookie dough into cast iron skillet and bake until the edges are golden and crispy.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for 10-20 minutes.

Pile on a few scoops of vanilla ice cream, get a few spoons and let the family gather around.

This is a dessert best enjoyed right away, but if you have leftovers you can store in an airtight container and microwave to enjoy another night (or, just save some of the cookie dough to make fresh the next night!).

Can I Make a Pizookie Without a Cast Iron Pan?

Absolutely! You can make this pizookie in an 8-9″ round pan, an 8-9″ pie plate, or in 4-6 small ramekins to serve individually.

The edges may not get quite as crispy as they would if you bake in cast iron, but it will still be delicious!
