Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Find your oven safe skillet and set aside.

Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer, beat the butter and sugars until creamy and light. 

Scrape down the sides and mix in the egg and vanilla extract. 

Pour in the flour in three additions, mixing until combined, and scraping down the sides as needed. Lastly, add the chocolate chips and mix.

Spread the batter in the skillet in an even layer. 

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes (and like all good cookies, don’t over bake), until edges are brown and top is golden. 

Let cool at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving with fresh ice cream in top.
