These individual skillet brownies are one of my new go-to must have chocolate recipes. They come together so quickly with pantry staples and only take 22 minutes to bake. They are also unbelievably good when eaten warm right out of the oven, straight from the skillet.

I have only had these skillets a few weeks, but I had to write out and get this recipe up on my site as soon as possible (so I could access it) and not forget a single detail.

And because I make them in our adorable mini heart shaped skillets, no one has to share and everyone gets crispy outside bits as well as gooey centres all to themselves. Round skillets between 5 and 6 inches across would work just as well too.

These skillet brownies need to be served with vanilla ice cream. I mean honestly we have not had them without. Not only because it means you can basically eat them piping hot from the oven with the ice cream to help cool each bite. They are also so incredibly delicious together. Hello easy weeknight brownie sundae, nice to meet you!
