cherry cherry chips chocolate chocolate chip cookie dessert pizookie recipe skillet cookie sweet sweets Valentine's Day

Cherry Chip Pizookie

Valentine's Day Cherry Chip Pizookie for Two - Mama Harris' KitchenI’ve devoted a lot of this week to researching recipes that epitomize the celebration of love. I know, it’s a tough life in this food bloggers life, but I do the dirty work so you don’t have to. You can thank me later.

I think there’s one recipe that my family requests from me more than any other combined.

My chocolate chip cookies.

Yes, they are loaded with 2 cups of milk chocolate chips. Yes, they are ridiculously easy to make, and much better than any store bought cookie. Yes, I’ve considered selling them.

Seriously. I could make some serious money with these. My oldest son, Boobie, has taken them to family gatherings, brought them to school and work, and shared them with friends and they honestly offer money for a batch of those cookies.

Needless to say, that’s my go-to cookie recipe for anything, and then I adapt it as needed.

Last year I made these Coconut Cherry Kiss Cookies that were phenomenal. I’d planned to share them for Valentine’s Day, but I fell behind so I shared them a few days later. Well, let me tell you, those cherry chips were delicious and I’ve daydreamed about them since. Unfortunately, they are hard to find and seem to be a seasonal item. That’s why a few days ago when I found them again, I snatched up a few packages and immediately knew what I wanted to do with them.

Valentine's Day Cherry Chip Pizookie for Two - Mama Harris' KitchenPizookies. Ever heard of them? It’s a pizza and a cookie and they are typically made in a pie plate, cake pan or in a skillet. You can also call them a skillet cookie, just to keep things simple.

Cherry chips. Chocolate. Cookie. Ice cream.

The result? It’s all the best things in the world and perfect to share with your love for Valentine’s Day. Of course I used my usual chocolate chip cookie recipe, with a few tweaks here and there. Just drop a big scoop of your favorite ice cream on top, and eat straight from the cute little skillet. I served mine with black cherry ice cream, because cherries! The hubster got a scoop of chocolate brownie on his and both were drizzled with chocolate syrup.

Valentine's Day Cherry Chip Pizookie for Two - Mama Harris' KitchenI also added a few other chips to the cookie, in addition to the cherry chips. Chop up a bit of almonds for a little crunch and you’re good to go. No cookie scoop to measure out 2 dozen cookies or 2-4 batches of cookies going in and out of the oven. No sir! Just two cute little skillets full of cookie goodness delivered in 10-12 minutes flat. Of course, you can always switch up the ingredients. If cherries aren’t your thing, just keep the chocolate in there or add in some other delicious goodies. Get creative!

You can thank me now.

Cherry Chip Pizookie Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon butter (to coat the skillet)
  • 3/4 cup cherry chips
  • 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup vanilla chips
  • 1/4 cup chopped almonds
  • chocolate syrup (to drizzle)
  • ice cream (to serve)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugars together.
Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, salt and cinnamon.
Once combined, slowly pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the sugar mixture while mixing on low.
Heat 1/2 teaspoon butter over two mini skillets like these Mini 5-inch Skillets from Lodge*. Make sure to spread the melted butter all over the bottoms and sides of the skillets.

Valentine's Day Cherry Chip Pizookie for Two - Mama Harris' KitchenRoll your batter in one big ball, then split it in half and place each half on one skillet.
Add in your toppings, splitting them all in half over each skillet, and simply fold it in with a spatula or roll it in using your hands.
The chips will already begin to melt, since the pan is a bit warm. No worries though, these babies aren’t about perfection at all.
Pop both skillets in the oven and set the timer for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden on the edges and still soft in the center.

Valentine's Day Cherry Chip Pizookie for Two - Mama Harris' KitchenBecause they are made in a wrought iron skillet, the cookie will continue to cook a bit even after you remove it from the oven.

Let cool for a few minutes, drop some ice cream on those bad boys, drizzle some chocolate over the top and serve with a couple of spoons and napkins so everyone can dig in.

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

Get the recipe and all the Vidalia Onion details by clicking the link in my profile or desktop users can click here for the recipe >> https://mamaharriskitchen.com/2021/06/pan-seared-shrimp-veggie-rice-bowl-vidalia-onions/ .

Also make sure to grab some Vidalia Onions from your local grocer before they are out of season in late August/early September.☀️

This time of year I love warm, comforting recipes that are super easy and delish. This ridiculously easy Chicken Tortilla Soup is a one pot meal, ready in under 30 minutes and uses already prepared rotisserie chicken for maximum flavor (and ease)! With a tasty blend of flavors and textures, it’s like a bowl full of comfort.

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

Happy December, all!! 🎄Since it’s basically Christmas now, it’s time to share ALL the holiday cookies! 

Every year I join my friend @natashanicholes as she heads up her #HousefulofCookies virtual cookie swap, where many of us share some sweet treats for the holiday season. 

This year I’ve created Cranberry Pistachio Citrus Cookies to share as my contribution. 🍪 I know that a lot of things have turned “virtual” throughout this year, but a little virtual bake-off is a fun way to connect with some of your favorite people!

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
