Description
A quick and easy single-serving microwave chocolate chip cookie that’s eggless, soft, and gooey, made in under 5 minutes with simple pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon whole milk, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon table salt (omit if using salted butter)
- 2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, brown sugar, and vanilla until the sugar dissolves.
- Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Transfer the dough to a microwave-safe 6-ounce ramekin or 12-ounce mug and smooth the top.
- Microwave on high for 40 seconds. If the top still looks wet, microwave in 10-second increments, not exceeding 1 minute total.
- Cool for about 10 minutes before eating to allow the cookie to set and prevent burns.
Notes
- Do not overcook; the cookie will continue to firm up as it cools.
- You can substitute milk or dark chocolate chips for semisweet.
- A pinch of cinnamon can be added for extra flavor.
- Best enjoyed fresh; texture becomes firmer the next day.
- If reheating, microwave for 10–15 seconds.
