Skillet Brownie

Ingredients:

• 2/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• pinch of salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preparations:

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and coat a 6-inch cast iron skillet with non-stick spray.
2. Place the sugar, cocoa, and salt in a small mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
3. Stir in the melted butter, followed by the egg.  Once the egg has been fully incorporated, stir in the flour and vanilla extract.  Fold in the chocolate chips and transfer the batter to the prepared skillet.
4. Bake for 28-33 minutes, or until the edges are set. The center toothpick test may not come out clean, but it will continue to cook when removed from the oven.  Cool for 20 minutes, top with ice cream and enjoy!

S'mores Cookies

Ingredients:

• 3 cups powdered sugar
• 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 3 extra large egg whites
• 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans (or chopped teddy grahams)
• 1 cup mini marshmallows

Preparations:

1. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, sift together the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Whisk in salt, egg whites, and vanilla and whisk until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and pecans.
3. Scoop out small mounds, roughly 2 Tbsps, on to the parchment paper then top each cookie with 4-5 marshmallows. Pop into the freezer for 5 minutes to chill slightly (this prevents them from spreading too much in the oven).
4. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. 
5. Bake for 12-13 minutes, rotating the trays 180 degrees midway through. You'll know they're done while the entire surface of the cookie is lighter in color. Let the cookies sit on the paper for a few minutes to set, before moving them to a wire rack to cool.
