Notes

Pay attention to the skillet size: Ensure you use the recommended size for this recipe, which is 10-inches. The cookie batter won't cook properly if you use a smaller one.
Don't overbake: The edges should be lightly golden brown and crispy, and the center should be soft and gooey!
Serve warm: This dessert is best when eaten warm! Ensure you allow 15 minutes to cool down, and don't wait too long after that.
