How to cook deliciously - Pizookie

1. Stage

Preheat your oven to 350° F. In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, melt the butter in the oven as it preheats.

2. Stage

As the oven preheats, stir together the sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl. It doesn't matter whether you use light or dark brown sugar. When the butter is almost melted, remove the skillet from the oven and swirl the butter until it's completely melted. Stir the melted butter into the sugar mixture, and set the skillet aside.

3. Stage

Beat the eggs and vanilla into the sugar mixture. In another bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt together. Gradually beat the dry ingredients into the sugar mixture. Editor's Tip:Make sure your eggs are room temperature before adding them. Not only do they mix into the batter more easily, but they'll also help the dough rise more. If you forgot to grab the eggs from the fridge in advance, just put them in a bowl of warm water for 10 to 15 minutes.

4. Stage

Stir in the chocolate chips and nuts. Spread the mixture into the buttered skillet.

5. Stage

Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs and the top is golden brown, or about 35 to 40 minutes. It's better to underbake the pizookie than overbake, as the heat from the skillet will continue to bake the cookie. Plus, you can't go wrong with a molten, gooey center. Serve the pizookie warm, and top with vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, hot fudge or extra chocolate chips—the possibilities are endless!
