I’ll be honest with you; the name does this cookie no justice. However it’s named after the infamous Slutty Brownie. So you have your basic cookie recipe. What makes the cookie ‘slutty’ is what you add to the cookie. You need 100 grams of chocolate. You can choose any chocolates you may have lurking in your treats cabinet. Or perhaps you have some fun size bars you want to use up. I would say it’s a great way to use up leftover chocolate. But who would I be kidding by saying LEFTOVER chocolate? Is there such a thing?

Anyway I had various fun size chocolates (store own brand). I used peanut and caramel bars (snickers will do), sweet coconut bars (Bounty) and some soft nougat bars (Milky way type) and a few M&Ms (chocolate ones). You can use whatever suits you.

This recipe is suitable for introducing young people into the kitchen as apart from the chopping up the recipe is pretty much child friendly and simple too.

For the basic skillet cookie (made in a 20CM skillet) you will need:

90 grams butter/margarine

80 grams soft brown sugar

80 grams castor sugar

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla (I used flavouring)

150 grams plain flour

1/2 tsp salt

And of course 100 grams chopped up chocolate bars

Preheat the oven to 170 C/350F.

Grease the Skillet pan. I used 1 cal coconut spray oil. You can use what it suitable for your needs.

In a mixing bowl beat together the sugars and butter. Once it’s smooth add the egg and mix well. Add the vanilla.

Add the flour and salt. Beat to incorporate the ingredients. You now have your basic cookie.

Now you can either fold in the chocolate or let little ones decorate the cookie with them. If you want the little ones to decorate the cookie (and this is fun-see photos) tip the cookie dough into the pan and evenly distribute it in the pan. Then let the kids go crazy with the chocolate.

If you fold the chocolate in stir it well to evenly spread the chocolate into the mixture. Then tip it into the pan and evenly distribute it in the pan.

Place the pan in the middle of the oven and bake for 15 minutes (or 20 minutes depending on how well you like your cookie done). Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

I served the cookie with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce.

NOTE: this recipe produces a semi-crumbly soft cookie. It’s more of a dessert like cookie than a chewy cookie.
