It’s not even midweek and I felt the need for a choccie-centric dessert – and VOILA the chocolate chunk skillet cookie with a melting centre is born.
Made to share but perfect for one after a really long day, the dough is a simple one – easy to freeze and plenty to save for later.
You can change up the flavours as you please (e.g dark chocolate and orange essence) but this is the classic, laden with big melty chocolate chunks as opposed to your basic chip.
