Pizookie Recipe

Perfect pizookie entirely from scratch

Over spring break, I wanted to live out my Nara Smith moment and make something entirely from scratch. So, when I was thinking about how badly I wanted a Pizookie, I knew it was a sign, and I decided to make a chocolate chip skillet cookie topped with Biscoff flavored ice cream. So here is the recipe for you to do it yourself:

Ingredients for the Cookie: 

2 sticks (1 cup) of Salted Butter

1 ¼ Cup of Brown Sugar

1 Egg

1 Egg Yolk

¼ Cup of Sugar

1 teaspoon of Sea Salt

1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract 

2 ¼ Cup of Flour 

1 teaspoon of Baking Soda

1 Cup of Chocolate Chips

Instructions: 

Start off by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. 

The recipe starts off by browning the butter in a pan at medium heat and letting it cool. Then, add it into a mixing bowl with the sugar, brown sugar and salt. Next, beat in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla into the sugar/butter mixture on low-to-medium speed.

In another bowl, mix the flour and baking soda together, then pour into the bowl with the egg/butter/sugar mixture ingredients and mix together on medium until combined into a dough. Then, add in chocolate chips.

*Tip: I use half a cup of semisweet chocolate and half a cup of milk chocolate for extra flavor, but you can use any chocolate chips you want. 

Place the dough into a cast iron skillet and pack down to make sure it all fits. Make sure that the chocolate chips are spread out. Let it chill in the fridge for at least an hour, but overnight is preferred.

Ingredients for the Ice Cream:

3 cups heavy cream

1 ¼ cups whole milk

1¼ cups sugar

1 ½ Tablespoons vanilla

16 Biscoff cookies roughly chopped

3/4 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter (Microwaved for 5-10 seconds)

Finished product of the pizookie from scratch

Instructions:

Start by combining heavy cream, whole milk, sugar and vanilla until the sugar dissolves, then let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes. After chilling, pour into a two-quart ice cream machine, turn it on and let churn according to machine directions. As the ice cream begins to set, add in cookie crumbs to mix. 

After it is finished, take the ice cream and pour it in thirds into a container, alternating with the cookie butter and cookie crumbs, and swirl it into the ice cream. Place plastic wrap  over the top to keep the ice cream soft and freeze for two hours. 

Let the cookie bake for 20 minutes in the oven at 350 degrees. Take the cookie out, and while it's still hot, place ice cream on top. Drizzle on any extra cookie butter and sprinkle with cookie crumbs, and your sweet treat is finished.
