Ingredients
Flour
We only need a little bit of plain flour for this single serve microwave cookie.
Egg
Helps to bind the ingredients together whilst also adding protein and nutrients
Brown Sugar
I love the flavour of brown sugar here over caster sugar, as the sweetness is combined with a nice molasses flavour. You could also use honey or maple syrup to add sweetness.
Salted Butter
The salted butter balances out the sweetness of microwave cookie dough. Think salted caramel vibe, but with chocolate chip.
Chocolate Chips
Serve as little bursts of flavour throughout the cookie dough.

FAQs
If you substitute the butter for vegan butter and the egg with a flax egg. Substitute the milk chocolate chips with dark chocolate
Yes you can! It’ll take longer than the microwave cookie, but if you pop it in a preheated oven to 180°C for 8-10 minutes then your cookie will be ready to eat. Some people may prefer the consistency of the oven baked cookie over the microwave cookie, but it of course takes longer.
