Chocolate Chip Cookie in a Mug

I decided that this week I would make a super easy recipe. It’s a chocolate chip cookie in a mug. That blows my mind. You make it in the microwave and it tastes just like a cookie. If you ever need a sweet treat but you just can’t find anything good to eat, this is a super easy recipe to make your own single serve cookie. It takes all the same ingredients as making a whole batch of chocolate chip cookies, so it seems like a lot of ingredients but it really doesn’t take much time at all. It only took me about 5 minutes to make, start to finish. And it was really good! I wasn’t sure if it would turn out very well, but it actually tasted really yummy – like a cookie fresh out of the oven. Why haven’t I made this before?!

Start by melting your butter in the microwave. Add sugar, brown sugar, vanilla and salt. Stir to combine.

Separate your egg and add the yolk to your cup. Stir to combine.


Add flour (I gradually added mine, just like a full cookie recipe says) then stir again. Add the chocolate chips, and give a final stir.


Cook in microwave 40-60 seconds, start checking for doneness at 40 seconds. (mine took 50 seconds)

Eat the mind blowing cookie with a spoon!



Recipe:

1 Tablespoon Butter
1 Tablespoon Granulated White Sugar
1 Tablespoon of firmly packed Dark Brown Sugar
3 Drops of Vanilla Extract
Small Pinch of Kosher Salt
1 Egg Yolk (discard the egg white)
Scant 1/4 of All Purpose Flour
2 Tablespoons of Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

Start by melting your butter in the microwave. Add sugar, brown sugar, vanilla and salt. Stir to combine. Separate your egg and add the yolk to your cup. Stir to combine. Add flour, then stir again. Add the chocolate chips, and give a final stir. Cook in microwave 40-60 seconds, start checking for doneness at 40 seconds.

Devour!

  3. This was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I just made it and even though I didn't have chocolate chips it was still great! I loved it! It was super easy and took less than 5 minutes. It cooked all the way through but it had the warm, right out of the oven taste. This is a great find, thanks!
