Ultimate Skillet Brownie
Follow this recipe for a deeply chocolatey brownie batter that bakes to perfection in an oven-safe skillet. You're only 1 hour away from a warm and exquisitely rich spoonful. I use and recommend bittersweet chocolate.

Ingredients
- 3/4 cup (12 Tbsp; 170g) unsalted butter
- 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 ounces (113g) bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate*, coarsely chopped
- 1 and 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (42g) unsweetened natural or Dutch-process cocoa powder*
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup + 2 Tablespoons (about 200g) semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
- optional for serving: ice cream, salted caramel sauce, and/or hot fudge sauce
Steps
-
In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, stir the butter, oil, chocolate, and sugar until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. (Or place in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each increment, until melted and smooth.) Pour into a large mixing bowl and whisk to make sure it’s completely smooth and not grainy. Set aside to slightly cool for 5 minutes.
-
Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Lightly grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet.
-
Add the eggs and vanilla to the bowl with the melted chocolate, and whisk until combined. Stir in the cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Once combined, fold in 1 cup chocolate chips.
-
Pour batter into the prepared skillet and sprinkle the remaining 2 Tablespoons chocolate chips over the top. Bake for 30–36 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Err on the side of underbaking, which gives you that gooey brownie center.
-
Allow the skillet brownie to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
