Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 egg yolk (discard the white or save for another use)

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/8 teaspoon baking soda

A pinch of salt

2 tablespoons chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)

Instructions
 

In a microwave-safe mug, melt the butter for about 20 seconds or until fully liquid.

    Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the melted butter. Stir well until all is combined.

      Mix in the egg yolk until fully incorporated.

        Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in the mug. Stir until just combined, but be careful not to overmix.

          Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

            Optional: Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top for an extra melty treat.

              Microwave the mug on high for about 40-60 seconds. Start checking at 40 seconds; the cookie should look set but slightly underbaked in the center - it will continue to cook as it cools.

                Allow the cookie to cool for a minute or two before enjoying your delicious creation straight from the mug!
