Description

Satisfy your sweet tooth with this quick & easy mug cookie recipe! A single-serving dessert ready in minutes, perfect for those late-night cravings. Minimal ingredients, maximum flavor!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips (or any other mix-ins you like)

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe mug, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Use a spoon to mix the dry ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
  3. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir well until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps.
  4. Fold in the chocolate chips (or your preferred mix-ins) into the batter.
  5. Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 60-90 seconds. Start with 60 seconds and add more time as needed.
  6. Let it cool for a minute or two before enjoying.

Notes

  • Don’t Overmix: Overmixing can lead to a tough cookie. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Adjust Sweetness: If you prefer a less sweet cookie, reduce the amount of sugar slightly.
  • Mix-In Ideas: Get creative with your mix-ins! Try chopped nuts, sprinkles, peanut butter chips, or even a swirl of Nutella.
  • Microwave Wattage: Microwaves vary in power, so adjust the cooking time accordingly. Start with a shorter time and add more in 10-second intervals if needed.
  • Let it Cool: Allow the cookie to cool for a minute or two before enjoying. It will be extremely hot straight out of the microwave.
