The Best Dessert in Chicago is the Cookie Skillet at Candlelite



If you have never been to Candlelite restaurant before, then you are in for a real treat. We have been in Rogers Park for over 60 years making thin crust pizza with our dough made from scratch, our freshly brewed pizza sauce and much more. However, if you have not had the Candlelite Cookie Skillet, then you are missing out.

The Candlelite Cookie Skillet is just that…a cookie skillet, but it’s loaded with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup and even a cherry on top. Served in a 6″ dish, this dessert is plenty for one person or can be shared as a romantic dessert for two.

We recently produced a short video on the Candlelite cookie skillet, with more surely to come in the future. Check out the video below!

WE WILL HAVE FOOTBALL!!!! Of course, it was never up to us…it was between the owners and the players, but now that it is official, it’s time to BEAR DOWN CHICAGO!!! We will be serving our specialty tailgate chili during game time, but for now, come watch the preseason on one of our many flat screen TVs! If the Bears are being televised, they will be on the TVs at Candlelite.
