The Best Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie Made Completely Vegan
If you love a warm, fudgy, melty chocolate chip cookie, then you will love this recipe since it's all that, triple the size. This recipe is cooked in a skillet so the edges of your cookie will be crispy while the inside of the dough is soft and gooey. You will want to eat this cookie with a fork or a spoon, and better yet, a scoop of vanilla dairy-free ice cream on the top and dive into the sinful chocolate peanut butter taste.
The best part about this recipe is the ingredients list: This dessert is completely vegan and has a gluten-free option if needed. Most of the ingredients you'll already have in your pantry or fridge so you will save yourself a trip to the grocery store. The cookie is naturally sweetened with maple syrup and apple sauce, a healthier version of sugar, which most cookie recipes call for. I like to add in Justin's dark chocolate peanut butter cups instead of using chocolate chips or peanut butter spread because Justin's are a two in one. When the cookie is finished baking in the oven, give it about 5-10 minutes to cool, and be careful because the skillet is extremely hot, and will stay this temperature for about 30-40 minutes. However you wish to serve this dessert, make sure to have a dishtowel around the skillet handle and top your favorite dairy-free ice cream flavor to the cookie! Enjoy.
