I subscribe to Hobby Farm Home magazine and the latest issue included some dessert recipes baked in cast iron skillets. One was "Mammoth Chocolate Chip Cookie!" I wanted to try it because we REALLY like the way cornbread comes out when baked in the cast iron skillet but I didn't necessarily want a mammoth cookie!
I took my favorite chocolate chip oatmeal bar cookie recipe that I usually bake in an 8 x 8-inch square pan and baked it in the 10-inch cast iron skillet. The bottom came out crunchier, just as I was hoping, and the middle is chewy, just the way hubby likes his cookies! I highly recommend giving it a try! 
Sorry the picture is so big, I just can't seem to figure out how to make it smaller!

That looks absolutely delicious!
Is the recipe you used a family recipe or one from a book?
Thanks and have a great day!
