Ingredients
  

Cookie Base

  • 1 tablespoon butter adds moisture and richness
  • 1 tablespoon sugar sweetens and contributes to texture
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract enhances flavor
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour provides structure
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate chips adds sweetness and melty texture
  • a pinch salt balances sweetness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Begin by melting the butter in a microwave-safe mug. This process should take about 10-20 seconds in the microwave.
  • Once the butter is melted, stir in the sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
  • Incorporate the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt, stirring gently until combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
  • Microwave the mug on high for 40-60 seconds, watching closely until the cookie is set but still slightly soft in the center.
  • Let the cookie cool for about one minute before enjoying.

Notes

For best results, use a larger mug to prevent overflow. You can adjust cooking time based on microwave wattage. Feel free to experiment with mix-ins like nuts or caramel.
