Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a 6 inch cast iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray. You can also use a 5 or 6 inch round cake pan or an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
Stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the oil and egg and stir until thick and moist. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spread in the prepared pan and sprinkle with more chocolate chips if desired.
Bake for 17-22 minutes until the top just loses its glossy sheen. For more done brownies, wait until a toothpick comes out with just a few crumbs when inserted 1 inch from the edge of the pan.
Cool and then slice and serve or eat straight from the pan.

How to Store this Skillet Brownie

Room Temp: If there's any brownie left that isn't already swimming in melted ice cream, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or stick it in an airtight container. It will stay good on the counter for about 2 days.
Fridge: Wrap it up well or pop it in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Freezer: Wrap slices in plastic wrap, then a layer of foil, and freeze for up to 2 months. When you're ready to dig in, thaw in the fridge overnight or on the counter for a couple of hours, then microwave it before serving.
