My latest obsession is baking skillet cookies. Baking will never be easier than this. Mix up a batch of delicious batter, spread in a skillet, and BAM, 25 minutes later, you’ve got one amazing cookie that can serve 8 people. Or 2. Serve with a dollop of sweetened sour cream, ice cream or a glass of milk. Honestly, you can’t go wrong here. Hence, why it’s a favorite here.
