Ingredients
1/2cuplight brown sugar
1/4 cupbuttermelted
1egg
1teaspoonvanilla extract
1cupall-purpose flour
1/4teaspoonbaking soda
1/4teaspoonKosher salt
3/4cupmix of chocolate and/or butterscotch chips(Mary suggests 1/4 cup chocolate chips, 1/4 cup chocolate chunks and 1/4 cup butterscotch chips)
Sea salt flakesoptional
Ice Creamoptional
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F.
In a large mixing bowl, place the sugar and melted butter. Mix until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla and continue mixing.
Add the flour, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix to combine.
Add your choice of chocolate or butterscotch chips. Stir well until they are evenly incorporated.
Press the dough into a lightly greased 10-inch skillet or an 8-inch baking dish. Bake for 14-16 minutes or until the top is puffy up and no longer wet. The cookie should be lightly browned and pulled away from the edge of the skillet. (Note, each time I've made this I've had to bake it for a bit longer than 15 minutes. Watch the time closely because this is one dessert you definitely do not want to over bake.
Top with sea salt flakes, ice cream or other toppings of your choosing. Enjoy!
