Main Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter adds richness and moisture
  • 2 tablespoons milk dairy or nondairy works, provides moisture
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar adds sweetness and a slight chew
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract enhances flavor
  • pinch salt balances sweetness
  • 3-4 tablespoons all-purpose flour gives structure
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder helps the cookie rise
  • 2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips adds sweetness and texture

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Begin by melting 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter in your mug, ensuring it’s nice and liquid for mixing in the next steps.
  • Once the butter is melted, add in 2 tablespoons of milk, along with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until everything blends evenly.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the mixture and mix it in thoroughly.
  • To give the cookie structure, add in 3 to 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder. Stir gently but thoroughly.
  • Fold in 2 tablespoons of semi-sweet chocolate chips until they’re evenly distributed in the batter.
  • Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for about one minute. Keep an eye on the cookie as it cooks until it puffs up slightly and looks set on top.

Notes

For best results, use a larger mug to prevent overflow and adjust cooking time based on your microwave. Let the cookie cool slightly before eating to maintain its shape.
