Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie with Dulce de Leche

March 2, 2017 by Beth Meyer

March begins the third month of the #BakingWithBeth recipe series and the theme for March is all things pies (because 3.14159!!). We’re kicking off pie month with a super rich and amazing cast iron skillet chocolate chip cookie pie with dulce de leche! I love a good chocolate chip cookie pie. It’s fabulous on its own, but I figured we could take things up to an 11 and add some dulce de leche in the center. I mean, chocolate and caramel…what’s not to love?!

I had leftover dulce de leche from the homemade DIY Samoas, which is what originally contributed to this idea. You can make your own, or you could always use some of the canned dulce de leche from the store if you’re not up for the full time commitment of the homemade variety. Or whip up a more speedy creamy caramel instead. I’ll have to try a side-by-side comparison sometime soon and see which wins out – creamy caramel vs dulce de leche!  I predict an overly indulgent tie with cookie crumbs, caramel and chocolate smeared on each judge’s face.

A chocolate chip cookie pie (with or without dulce de leche) is the perfect quick and easy treat to bake for all the up coming spring and summer bbq’s! Or even just a casual weekend dessert. 🙂

Specialty Tools Needed:

  • Cast Iron Skillet
  • Small Off-Set Spatula / Palette Knife

If you’re a regular, thanks again for coming back for another #BakingWithBeth recipe. Let’s see those things y’all are baking at home in your kitchens! 🙂

If you’re brand new, in January we covered all things Southern cakes: week one/caramel cake, week two/Hummingbird Cake, week three/sour cream pound cake and week four / pineapple upside down cake.

February was all about cookies!! Week five / best chocolate chip cookies, week six / Italian macarons and week seven / chocolate covered alfajores and the final week of the month, week eight / DYI Samoas Girl Scout cookie.

Be sure to follow along Instagram and Facebook and tag #BakingWithBeth so I can see what kind of recipe for adventures y’all have going on.

What do you think… are you a purist with a chocolate chip cookie pie, or does a chocolate chip cookie pie with dulce de leche take it to an 11?

Cheers y’all!

Recipe Notes

The base for the cookie was based off the Bon Appetit Giant Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie recipe.

I used leftover dulce de leche from the homemade DIY Samoas recipe. You can make your own to keep on hand, or use canned dulce de leche from the grocery store.
