Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1 egg yolk (discard or save the white)

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons chocolate chips

Instructions
 

In a microwave-safe mug, melt the unsalted butter for about 20 seconds in the microwave.

    Once melted, add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the mug. Mix well until fully combined.

      Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

        Add the egg yolk to the mixture and stir until smooth.

          Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour until no dry flour remains.

            Gently mix in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

              Microwave the mug cookie on high for 40-60 seconds. The cookie should look set but still slightly gooey in the center. (Microwave times may vary, so keep an eye on it!)

                Let the mug cookie cool for a minute or two before enjoying it straight from the mug. Optional: top with more chocolate chips or a scoop of ice cream for an extra treat!
