Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups (191 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 stick (113 grams) unsalted butter, (melted)
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, (at room temperature )
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (170 grams) white chocolate chips
  • 2 large apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup salted caramel sauce

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray two 6-inch pie plates or cast iron skillets with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, stir the melted butter with the dark brown sugar and granulated sugar. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir with a spatula until just incorporated. Fold in the white chocolate chips.
  5. Divide the dough evenly between the prepared pie plates. Bake for about 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
  6. While cookies bake, prepare the caramel apple topping. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add diced apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Cook, stirring often, until apples soften, about 8 minutes.
  7. Top the warm pizookies with the caramel apple mixture and a generous drizzle of salted caramel sauce. Serve immediately with ice cream, if desired.

Notes

- For the perfect gooey center, watch for the edges to just barely brown; the middle will set a bit more as it cools.
- Don't overmix the cookie dough once the flour is added; this can make the cookie tough. Stir just until combined.
- If your apples aren't softening enough, cover the skillet for a few minutes to steam them, then uncover and continue cooking until tender-crisp.
