I have to admit it, you all- I was late to the game as far as embracing my cast iron skillet goes. Way back in the day, I was given one as a wedding day gift and promptly turned up my nose to it. What was I supposed to do with that awkwardly heavy thing anyways?? I pretty much had no cooking or baking skills to speak of at the young age of 19 (Yikes! That is how young I was when I married my first husband.), and I was definitely completely unaware of all the absolutely fabulous dishes you could make in a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. Maybe if had known about the perfectly fried chicken and the buttery, flaky biscuits and the mother of them all- a huge skillet cookie- I would have felt differently back then. ;) 

Fast forward about 16 years later, and I was finding myself researching and asking for cast iron skillet recommendations from friends and fellow food bloggers. And why the change of heart? Well, I think it may have had a little more to do with my stomach than my heart, but I started seeing all these amazing dishes made in cast iron skillets popping up all over some of my favorite food blogs. The more cast iron recipes I saw, the more I started to come around to the idea of owning one myself. But the kicker for me was all these huge, gooey, amazing skillet cookie recipes I kept coming across! I wanted to make them all
So, of course one of the first things that I made in my brand new cast iron skillet was a bigger than my face skillet cookie! This Caramel Peanut Butter Skillet Cookie is packed with chopped peanut butter cups, gooey caramel, and chocolate chips. It is certainly big enough to share, but I promise to just look the other way if you decide to keep this big delicious cookie all to yourself... ;)
