    This recipe is the perfect combination of sweet and salty (because of the salt). I love making this large cookie skillet because it's an elevated take on classic M&M cookies. Plus, this recipe is totally gluten-free!

    Gluten-Free, Gooey M&M Skillet Cookie with M&M's

    The cookie dough is mixed together in the skillet. That means fewer dishes! And, this delicious M&M skillet cookie makes just enough dough to fill one medium-sized skillet.

    This cookie skillet is really a cookie cake or a cookie pie. Some people call that a pizookie! 

    What I love about this recipe

    I love all the textures in this recipe. First, there's the crunchy exterior and then the softer inside part of the pizookie.

    The Gluten-Free Flour

    I have two go-to gluten-free baking flours. I like either Cup4Cup gluten-free flour or Bob’s Red Mill flour. I love both of these gluten-free flour blend. They are linked below for easy access. These two brands make gluten-free baking so easy!

    Equipment

    • A 10 or 12 inch cast iron skillet
    • A rubber spatula
    • Mixing bowls

    Ingredients

    • Unsalted butter
    • Brown Sugar
    • Granulated Sugar
    • Eggs
    • Vanilla
    • Gluten-free flour
    • Baking soda
    • Salt
    • M&M's
    • Semi-sweet chocolate chunks

    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

    Melt the butter in the skillet over medium heat.

    Pour in the granulated sugar and brown sugar and mix thoroughly. 

    In a separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients (besides the sugars which are already added).

    Add both eggs and vanilla and combine well.

    Pour the dry mixture into the butter mixture.

    Mix thoroughly and carefully add M&M's and chocolate chunks.

    Sprinkle the top of the dough with more M&M's.

    Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.

    Enjoy!

    Did you know?

    Brown sugar is made by mixing white sugar with molasses. If you ever are in a pinch without brown sugar, try making your own!

    Tips and Tricks for the Best MM Cookie Cake

    Make sure to sprinkle the top of the unbaked cookie with M&M's. That makes sure that you can see all the pretty M&M's.

    A note on the skillet

    A 10 or 12 inch cast iron skillet is needed to make this M&M skillet cookie. Spread the cookie dough over the entire surface of the skillet, and bake until golden brown.

    Serving Suggestions

    Serve warm and straight out of the oven. Top with vanilla or strawberry ice cream and lots of whipped cream. Make sure to have glasses of milk nearby, too! Cut the cookie in wedges like you're cutting a cake.

    I haven’t tried making this gluten-free skillet cookie vegan; however, to make this skillet cookie you would need to replace the egg, and use a vegan oil like coconut oil. And, Bob’s Red Mill sells an egg replacement that may work well. I’ll experiment with the recipe and update it accordingly.

    The difference is just that one recipe has M&M's and one has chocolate chips. You can replace the M&M's with chocolate chips for a gluten-free chocolate chip skillet cookie.
