Chunky Chocolate Cookie In a Pan 

You are sure to love this recipe I am sharing with you today. Not only is it very unusual, but it is also quick, easy and delicious! 

Chunky Chocolate Cookie In a Pan   

A skillet sized chocolate chunk cookie that bakes on top of the stove, right in the skillet!

 

I told myself that this year I wasn't going to buy myself any more cookery books, but then the other day when I had gone to Gordale to buy my Christmas cards, lo and behold, this little book jumped right into my basket!  How could I resist however.  Cookies in a Pan by Sabrina Fauda-Role.  It was just far too tempting and the price was right, only £3.99.  A real bargain.

Everything for the cookie gets mixed together right in the pan.  Melted butter, egg, flour, sugar and baking powder . . .  I added some vanilla paste because I am quite unable to leave things well alone, and a chocolate chunk cookie with vanilla is to me perfection.

You spread the batter out in the pan, press some chocolate chunks into it and let it bake on the stove top in the skillet over very low heat for about fifteen minutes and then you cover it tightly and bake it for about 5 minutes longer.

Who wouldn't be totally thrilled to get a gift like that!  Not me that's who!  I would love it!

The recipe said it made six servings, but in all honesty they would be HUGE!  I cut it into eight wedges and they were still nice and big.

Todd and I each enjoyed one while they were still semi warm . . .

The chocolate slightly gooey, so, so, so good  . . .

I dare say these would make for an excellent dessert served warm in wedges with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and perhaps some indulgent chocolate or toffee sauce spooned over top!

An interesting way to bake a cookie, in a skillet on top of the stove. Deliciously different!

ingredients:

  • 150g plain flour (1 cup + 1 1/2 TBS)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 90g sugar (scant 1/2 cup)
  • 100g salted butter (7 TBS)

How to cook Chunky Chocolate Cookie In a Pan

  1. Measure the flour, sugar, and baking powder into a bowl and whisk well together.  Set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a 10 inch non-stick skillet over very low heat.  Remove from the heat.  Whisk a bit of the butter into the beaten egg to temper it and then whisk the egg back into the butter in the skillet.  Whisk in the vanilla paste and then the dry ingredients until you have a mixture with a smooth texture.  Spread out into the bottom of the skillet evenly.  Scatter the chocolate bits over top, pressing in lightly.
  3. Place over low heat again and cook for 15 minutes.  Cover tightly with a lid and cook for a further 5 minutes.  Remove the lid and wipe off any condensation which has formed.  Replace on the pan and remove the pan to a wire rack away from the heat to cool for 15 minutes before cutting into wedges to serve.

Easy Almond Croissants

  When we lived down in the South East of the country we sometimes took ourselves over to France for a day out.  We were not all that far from the ferry back then, and it was an easy jaunt and a pleasant trip over on the Ferry. You could be sitting in Boulogne enjoying a hot drink and a plate of Frites in only a few hours, even faster if you took the car train through the tunnel.   I preferred the ferry over the train for several reasons.  For one, you could get out of your car and stretch your legs.  For two, you could spend the journey in their comfy lounge enjoying a drink and one of their fresh almond croissants.    Oh boy  . . .  one of the things that the French do very well, aside from their beautiful breads and macrons  . . .  is croissants and my favourite of all are the almond ones.  They are quite, quite, QUITE delicious to say the least!   It has always been my dream to spend a week in Paris, in the Spring time...

Canadian Dutchies

Tim Hortons is a bit of a Canadian Institution.  It is a coffee/doughnut shop that  feels like a second home to many Canadians.  I worked there for a time prior to moving over here to the UK.      When I worked there, they would have a baker come in every night and he would work from 10:00 pm until about 6 in the morning baking cakes, frying doughnuts, baking pies, etc.  When you went into work in the morning there would be trays and trays of the freshly finished goodies sitting and waiting to go out onto the shelves.   I understand that they don't have in-store bakers these days, and that all the goods are brought in baked and frozen, ready to thaw out and pop onto the shelves.  Its called progress, but I understand that their goodies are not as nice as they used to be, or so I have been told.    I can't help but think that in losing the personal touch, in favour of more profits, they have lost something very special  . ....

Maple & Cranberry Baked Apples

   Baked Apples one of the comfort foods we like to enjoy in the Winter months.  Apples are plentiful and at their best. We don't mind having the oven on, and they are delicious and very easy to do.   I had recently gotten some fabulous Organic Dried Cranberries and Ceylon Cinnamon Sticks from Buy Wholefoods Online and I felt they would be perfect for using in this simple and easy dessert. If you are not familiar with Buy Whole Foods Online you really need to look them up. I buy all of my dried fruit from them every year for my Christmas Cakes, and other bits and bobs throughout the year. Buy Whole Foods Online is an international health food supplier, based in Minster, Ramsgate, North East Kent. They deliver top quality natural and organic wholefoods, and related healthy living products, directly to homes and businesses across the UK and Europe.
