There is nothing quite like a fresh cookie warm from the oven, but sometimes you do not want an entire batch sitting on the counter. This recipe is my favorite way to treat myself with a single, perfectly golden cookie in just a few minutes.

It is incredibly simple to whip up, and the best part is that you do not have to wait for butter to soften. Just melt it, stir in the rest of your ingredients, and enjoy your sweet reward.

๐Ÿงบ Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
  • 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 tablespoons beaten egg
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸณInstructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt until smooth.

  3. 3

    Stir in the beaten egg until well combined.

  4. 4

    Add the flour and mix until a soft dough forms.

  5. 5

    Fold in the chocolate chips.

  6. 6

    Place the dough onto a small baking sheet lined with parchment paper, shaping it into a round cookie.

  7. 7

    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are golden brown.

  8. 8

    Let the cookie cool for a few minutes before eating.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

If you are in a rush, you can skip the parchment paper, but it helps with easy cleanup. For the best texture, make sure you let the cookie rest for at least five minutes so it sets properly before you take that first bite.
