There is something about peanut butter and chocolate that makes such a happy marriage of flavors. If your having a hard day and need a special treat you can eat right out of the pan, try this delicious recipe for Skillet Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk.
Our family calls these giant cookies Pizookies, because they are large pizza cookies! If you don't have a skillet, just shape your cookie dough into a large round circle on a baking sheet or pizza pan and cook according to the directions.
We often serve our cookies with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream on top.

I love using my cast iron skillet, and this looks like a wonderful way! No need to worry about someone scraping the finish off a non-stick pan either. 🙂 Plus, PB and chocolate’s a winning combo! 🙂
