Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

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

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons chocolate chips

Optional: a sprinkle of sea salt for topping

Instructions
 

In a microwave-safe mug, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds.

    Once melted, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt to the mug. Stir well until combined.

      Stir in the egg yolk until fully incorporated.

        Add the flour and mix until there are no dry spots. The mixture should be thick and doughy.

          Fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.

            Optionally, sprinkle a little sea salt on top for an extra flavor boost.

              Microwave the mug cookie on high for 40-60 seconds. Start checking at 40 seconds; you want the cookie to look set but still soft in the center.

                Let the mug cookie cool for a minute before digging in. Enjoy it warm, right from the mug!
