I didn't bake the cookies in the skillet, but I thought they looked so stinkin' yummy in these mini cast iron skillets...I served them that way. The cookie is warm and when the bananas foster is poured over top...YUM! I sprinkled a few pecan chips on top to complete the dessert. But the bananas foster turns caramelly; probably not even a word but so works :) Each bite make you die a little bit!
Celebrate the little things that make life sweet,
