These Little Bit Salty Little Bit Sweet Skillet Cookies are every woman’s dream cookie, with chocolate, chips, coconut, and pretzels all mixed in!

Say the words “skillet cookie” and I will bust right through the wall like the Kool-Aid man, yelling “Ohhh, yeah!”. They are perhaps my favorite dessert, for a number of reasons. But perhaps the biggest reason is that I can go from oven to spoon, shoveling it in my face without the pesking scraping it off the pan and letting them cool factor. Why waste time with that bs?
