Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 3 Tablespoons (45 milliliters) all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tablespoons (30 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 Tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter, melted

Sweeteners:

  • 1 Tablespoon (15 grams) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 Tablespoon (15 grams) granulated sugar

Flavor Enhancers and Leavening Agents:

  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 milliliters) baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 milliliters) vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon (0.625 milliliters) salt

Optional Topping:

  • Vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  1. In a compact vessel, amalgamate melted butter with brown and granulated sugars, incorporating baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt until achieving a uniform consistency.
  2. Fold flour and chocolate chips into the moistened mixture, gently stirring until ingredients integrate seamlessly without overmixing.
  3. Carefully distribute the batter into a microwave-safe mug or ramekin, ensuring an even surface and smooth presentation.
  4. Activate microwave for approximately 50-60 seconds at high power, monitoring the cookie’s transformation – it should rise slightly and maintain a hint of moisture at its epicenter.
  5. Pause momentarily to allow the cookie to stabilize and cool, preventing potential burns from immediate consumption. Optional: Crown with a chilled scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent enhancement.

Notes

  • Choose a microwave-safe mug with high sides to prevent overflow during cooking and ensure even heating.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the cookie tender and prevent a tough texture.
  • Customize your cookie by swapping chocolate chips with nuts, dried fruit, or alternative chocolate varieties for a personalized touch.
  • Try gluten-free flour or almond flour to make this recipe suitable for different dietary needs without compromising taste.
