Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cupsall-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoonsbaking powder
  • 1 teaspoonbaking soda
  • ½ teaspoonsalt
  • 1 cupunsalted butter
  • 1 cuppacked brown sugar
  • ½ cupsugar
  • 1 largeegg
  • 2 largeegg yolks
  • 3 teaspoonsvanilla extract
  • 10 ounceschocolate chips, (milk or semi-sweet, your choice!)
  • flaked salt, (for topping)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, soda, and salt.

  3. 3

    Heat an oven safe (preferably cast iron!) 12-inch skillet over low heat. Let the skillet heat up for 5 minutes. Add the butter and let it melt completely. Stir in the sugars with a wooden spoon. Turn off the heat under the skillet. You MUST turn off the heat! You can also remove the skillet from the burner if you wish.

  4. 4

    Whisk together the egg and egg yolks in a bowl. Add it to the skillet sugar mixture and mix in right away with a spoon, quickly mixing so the eggs don’t cook from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. This will take a minute or two and the mixture will be thick, but they will mix in! You can wipe the top of the skillet or the sides with a damp paper towel to remove excess flour.

  6. 6

    Stir in the chocolate chips. Bake the skillet cook for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it’s mostly set in the center. Top with flaked sea salt.

  7. 7

    Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
