To everyone at my local Target: I apologize for being THAT person who tried to check out while glued to my phone. Not my proudest moment.

I wish I could hand you this skillet cookie. Or ten of them.

That distracted checkout moment isn’t who I usually am. Let me make it up to you. This cookie should help.

I’m convinced it cures everything. I’m planning to make two more this weekend to fix a little hangover, some rainy-day blues, a dog-chewed shoe and the aftermath of impulse purchases. Thanks, Target.

This cookie is simply fantastic.

Honestly, it was more than just good — it was comforting, warm, and rich, exactly what a skillet cookie should be.

For the recipe, check out the original source for a dark chocolate chunk skillet cookie — it’s the one I followed and highly recommend.
