Individual Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie

You know those days when you want to bake something?  But you don't want thirty cookies, you want just one?  Today I made myself a chocolate chip cookie in the microwave.  Yeah, baby!  It was so easy, too.   Remember when I made the Chocolate Mug Cake?  It was the same idea and the cookie tasted delicious. 

Here's how I made it:

Individual Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie

1 T. Melted Butter
1 T. White Sugar
1 T. Brown Sugar
3 Drops of Vanilla Extract
1 Egg Yolk
Pinch of Sea Salt
1/4 C. Flour
2 T. Mini Chocolate Chips

Melt butter in microwave for 10 seconds, then add rest of ingredients in small bowl or dish.  Then microwave for about one minute.  Enjoy!

Voila! Cookie dough super fast!




 
I know, I'm bad!  I couldn't resist adding a dollop of Tillamook Caramel Butter Pecan Ice Cream.
