1-Min Chocolate Chip Cookie in a Cup - Microwave Choc Chip Cookie Recipe

Chocolate chip cookie in a cup. In one minute. Made in the microwave. Delicious. That's really all I need to say about this awesome recipe but I will talk a bit more because, you know, I love to talk! So yes, this cookie thing in a cup is fabulous you guys. Remember the 5-minute chocolate mug cake recipe? Well, this is even better. The texture is that of a soft cookie and it's really hard to mess it up so great results are guaranteed.

See what I mean? I took the picture of the cookie above after it had cooled down completely and it still remained soft and scoop-able, yet had the consistency of a chocolate chip cookie. You can customize this recipe many different ways but let's all take a moment and thank this day and age when making a cookie in a cup in one minute in a microwave is not only possible, but gets us amazing results.

Now, what's keeping you? Go grab a cup or mug and go make yourself a cookie immediately. You can then come back and thank me :)

1-MIN MICROWAVE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE

Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 1 minute
Serves 1-2
Recipe source: number 2 pencil

INGREDIENTS:
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp white sugar
1 tbsp brown sugar, firmly packed (press down into the measuring spoon after scooping)
2 drops of vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
1 egg yolk (separate the egg whites from yolk)
2 heaping tbsp of plain flour
2 tbsp chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Add 1 tbsp butter to a microwave-safe cup or mug and microwave for 10 seconds until it melts. No need to heat or boil, just make sure it's melted.

2. Add the 1 tbsp white sugar, 1 tbsp brown sugar, pinch of salt, and 2 drops vanilla to this. Mix well.

3. Separate an egg and add just the egg yolk to the above. Mix well to combine.

4. Add the 2 heaping tbsp of flour and mix until no streaks of flour remain. The mixture will be fairly thick.

5. Add the 2 tbsp chocolate chips to this and fold until well combined. I added some more chips on top to make the cookie look pretty when done.

6. Microwave on high (mine is a 1100W microwave) for 45-50 seconds. I stopped at 45 seconds and that was perfect. The top will still be a bit fudgy but remember that the cookie will continue to cook after you take it out.

That's it! Scoop out with a spoon and enjoy. If you have vanilla ice cream lying around in your freezer, add a small scoop to this and you have yourself a great dessert. It's also a nice idea to serve this to guests if you are hosting a small party. Microwave individual portions of cookie, add some ice-cream on top, and serve as is. They're sure to be impressed :)

Note: I haven't tried any other variations of this recipe so I am not sure the best way to make this recipe eggless, etc. You can try the usual substitutes like yogurt or flax seed meal, I just haven't done so yet. The egg yolk adds the creaminess and moisture to this recipe so if you do eat eggs, I urge you to try the recipe without any changes.
