Chocolate Chip Cookie in Two Mugs

I wanted to make a small dessert, so I made two "chocolate chip cookies in a mug".  I repeated similar recipe a couple of days later, and found Doug likes the "gooey" version, and I prefer the "cakey" version.

 Ingredients:

Gooey Version:

• 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 Tablespoon brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• light 1/8 teaspoon or pinch  of salt
• 1/2 an egg (if you are making two, or else use egg yolk)
  
• 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 Tablespoons chocolate chips

Cakey Version:

• 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 Tablespoon brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• light 1/8 teaspoon oe pinch  of salt
• 1/2 an egg (if you are making two, or else use egg yolk)
• 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 Tablespoons chocolate chips

 

Instructions:

1. Microwave butter in 2 mugs until melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. 
2. Use a spoon to mix in sugars, vanilla extract and salt  into each mug until well-combined.
3. Mix up egg, and divide between the two mugs, mixing in completely.
4. Mix in flour. 
5. Fold in chocolate chips, reserving a few for the top.
6. With two mugs, nicrowave on high for 50 to 60 seconds.
   (Use less time and only the egg yolk for one mug.)
