Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie

Preheat oven to 375ºF.

Add 10 tablespoons of butter to a small saucepan. Heat over medium high heat and cook until butter is golden brown and bubbly, about 5 minutes.

Add remaining 4 tablespoons of butter to a large bowl. Cut into cubes. Add melted butter to the cubed butter in the bowl and stir until melted. Stir in both sugars, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla.

In a medium bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda and cornstarch. Fold in the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in two parts until incorporated. Do not over-mix. Fold in chocolate chips.

Spread into a cast iron skillet. No need to grease the pan. (Cast iron pans should already be seasoned.) Bake for 20–25 minutes; mine took exactly 20 minutes.

Serve warm with ice cream if desired!
