Preparation process
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 10 inch cast iron skillet.
  2. 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
  3. 3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. For a gluten free skillet cookie, use a measure for measure gluten free flour blend.
  5. 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. 6. Fold in the chocolate chips and raspberries.
  7. 7. Pour the cookie dough into the prepared skillet and spread evenly.
  8. 8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still slightly gooey.
  9. 9. Let cool slightly before serving. Don’t worry if it looks a little soft while warm; it firms up as it cools!

Serving this raspberry chocolate skillet cookie is the best part! For the ultimate indulgence, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top while the cookie is still warm. The contrast of cold ice cream and warm cookie is heavenly.

Other great options include a dollop of freshly whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or a sprinkle of fresh raspberries. You can also serve it with a glass of cold milk or a scoop of your favorite dairy-free ice cream.

For a more elegant presentation, dust the cookie with powdered sugar and arrange fresh raspberries around the edge of the skillet.

If you happen to have leftovers (though it’s unlikely!), store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

For longer storage, you can refrigerate the cookie for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes.

Freezing is not recommended as it can affect the texture of the raspberries and cookie.

  • For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
  • If using frozen raspberries, do not thaw them before adding to the dough. This will prevent the dough from becoming too wet.
  • Don’t overbake the cookie! It should be slightly gooey in the center for the best texture.
  • If you don’t have a cast iron skillet, you can use a baking dish instead. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • For a gluten free skillet cookie, be sure to use a high quality gluten free flour blend. Some blends work better than others.
  • Flour: Use a good quality all purpose flour or a 1:1 gluten free baking flour. Different flour brands absorb liquid differently, so adjust flour amount if needed.
  • Raspberries: Feel free to use either fresh or frozen raspberries. If using frozen, add them directly to the dough without thawing.
  • Chocolate: Use your favorite type of chocolate chips. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or even white chocolate would all be delicious.
  • Skillet: A 10 inch cast iron skillet is the ideal size for this recipe. If you don’t have one, you can use a baking dish of similar size.
  • White Chocolate Raspberry: Substitute white chocolate chips for the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • Nutty Delight: Add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the dough.
  • Salted Caramel: Drizzle with salted caramel sauce after baking.
  • Berry Medley: Mix raspberries with blueberries or blackberries for a mixed berry flavor.

Can I use frozen raspberries in this skillet cookie recipe?

Yes, you can use frozen raspberries. There is no need to thaw the raspberries before adding them to the cookie dough. Just toss them in a bit of flour before mixing to avoid them sinking to the bottom.

How do I know when the raspberry chocolate skillet cookie is done?

The cookie is done when the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still slightly soft. A toothpick inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.

Can I make this raspberry chocolate skillet cookie dairy-free?

Yes, you can substitute the butter with a dairy-free butter alternative and the chocolate with dairy-free chocolate chips to make it dairy-free. Ensure all other ingredients are also dairy-free.

Conclusion

To conclude, this raspberry chocolate skillet cookie is the ultimate comfort dessert—simple, nostalgic, and incredibly satisfying. Served warm and topped with ice cream or whipped cream, it’s a dessert that brings people together and turns everyday moments into sweet memories.
