Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make your own chocolate chip mug cookie: Butter: You’ll need softened butter for this recipe. You can soften butter quickly by cutting it into small pieces and letting it sit at room temperature for a bit, or by microwaving it in short bursts, being careful not to overdo it. Flour: All-purpose flour / Plain flour is the best choice for this recipe. It’s a versatile flour that works well in cookie recipes. Chocolate chips: You can use any type of chocolate chips you prefer for this recipe. Milk chocolate, semi-sweet, dark chocolate, or a combination of different types of chocolate chips for a more complex flavor. Egg: You’ll only need the yolk of one egg for this recipe. Sugar: You’ll need both granulated sugar and light brown sugar for this recipe. It’s important to use light brown sugar in this recipe, as it has a warm, caramel-like flavor. Use of dark brown sugar will make the cookie too moist and heavy. Vanilla: Vanilla extract adds a warm, sweet flavor. Be sure to use pure vanilla extract, not imitation, for the best flavor.

Stir the dry ingredients - flour and salt until a smooth dough forms. Mix in the chocolate chips and microwave for 40-60 seconds (1100-wattage microwave). Check if it’s done at 40 seconds.
