M&M’s Skillet Cookie

RECIPE

Ingredients:

• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup  sugar
• 1 1/4 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 80 g m&m’s

Directions:

1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Continue to cook the butter, stirring often, until it starts to foam.
2. Remove the pan from the heat, pour the butter into a bowl to cool slightly before proceeding. (Don’t clean the skillet – just let it cool as is… it is greased now and ready for the cookie dough in a bit!)
3. Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
4. In large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg and mix for a minute and next add the vanilla extract and mix it in.
5. Mix in the flour, salt and baking powder until just well mixed.
6. Transfer the dough evenly into the ovenproof skillet, sprinkle the top with the m&m’s.
7. Bake it for 30 minutes, until the cookie is just set and golden brown.
8. Serve in slices with whipped cream, ice cream, or glass of milk.
