    🍴 Recipe Tips

    Make sure to grease your cast iron skillet well as this will help to prevent the cookie dough from sticking to the pan, making it much easier to scoop without leaving yummy cookie pieces behind.

    If desired, you can eat the large pizookie straight from the skillet by topping it with ice cream and digging in with a spoon, or you can slice it into triangular-shaped pieces and serve it much like you would a pie or cake.

    📖 Variations

    You can use any flavor of tubed cookie dough for different flavored skillet pizookies. This means you can enjoy sugar cookies or even peanut butter cookies, or any other flavor you prefer by simply buying a different flavor of the dough.

    Oh, the pizookie recipe possibilities!

    🍳 Grill/Campfire Cooking Instructions

    Place over grill or campfire, but off from the heat, so it's close but not directly above the heat source.

    Cook for 15 minutes or until a toothpick can be inserted and come out clean.

    💭 FAQs

    What is a Pizookie?

    A "pizookie" is a skillet cookie that got its name and creation from BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse (a popular US restaurant chain). It's often served warm with scoops of ice cream on top.

    How long can a pizookie last?

    It's meant to be served warm and fresh from the oven, but if you need to, you could store leftovers in the fridge for 3-5 days in an airtight container. This is assuming you haven't already covered the stored portion in ice cream because that would just become a soggy cookie.

    Can you reheat a Pizookie?

    Absolutely! Feel free to place your leftover pizookie on a microwave-safe plate and heat for about 30 seconds to 1 minute (depending on the size of the portion), and enjoy your cookie warm.
