Microwave Cookie in a Cup

Fun fact about me, I am a chocoholic. Seriously, you put chocolate anywhere near me and it will disappear into my stomach. So when I see a pin for a chocolate chip cookie I know that I have to try it. I saw this pin about 10 minutes before I finished eating said cookie. I saw this, showed my mom, and then went to the kitchen.

Just a random thought that just popped into my mind. My future husband, whoever he is, will be a lucky man. All those jokes about woman belonging in the kitchen will be a little true. I love to cook. Almost any time of day. He asks me to make dinner, done. And I'm an amazing sandwich maker. Haha. The only rule I will have is if I cook, he washes the dishes. I hate doing dishes. Anyway, I digress.

So this recipe is one of the quickest dessert recipes in the world. It took less than five minutes.

First gather your ingredients and your microwavable bowl (like a small soup bowl)
1 tbsp melted butter (you can use the bowl you are making the cookie in)
1 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp brown sugar, packed
1 egg yolk
3 drops vanilla
1/4 cup flour
2 tbsp chocolate chips
Pinch of salt

Mix. Microwave for 40-60 seconds. Voila! Your chocolate chip cookie in a cup, or in this case bowl. It was bigger than I thought so I split it with my mom. It wasn't a normal cookie texture, but it was still good. I will definitely make this again.

One good thing about this recipe is that you aren't tempted to eat the whole batch of cookies you made. It is also super easy. Here is the original pin.

If you have a chocolate craving here is a solution without having to make a lot. I plugged in the recipe into the awesome LoseIt app (which I highly recommend) and it came out to about 350 calories in one of these. But they are quite large and I split mine, so really I only ate 175 calories and it still satisfied me. So indulge yourself and try out this recipe.
