Chocolate chip cookie in a mug that just takes one minute and it’s done! Perfect cookie for one when you just want a little something sweet at night.
Ok so I am a sucker for dessert and this chocolate chip cookie in a mug hits the spot! I’d eat it first just to make sure I had room, but that probably wouldn’t be the best impression to leave my kids. Come the new year I too am always looking to eat a bit healthier and of course portion control is a big part of that. I cannot cut out sweets entirely…just sayin’….so this eggless cookie in a mug is perfect for one person! It’s one of our favorite mug recipes.
Enjoy and like The Typical Mom for more great recipes and tips too!
I know…it really is amazing! You can easily package all the dry ingredients together in ziploc baggies and then each time you want a cookie for one you just add the milk, oil, and vanilla and you’re ready to microwave it for just one minute! Occasionally I do cook a whole batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies but seriously I rarely have time for that, and we really don’t need 24 in our house when my aim is to have sweets every now and then. This dessert in a mug is perfect though for a treat in the evening when the kiddos go to bed (yes you’re allowed to do that)!
The recipe below doesn’t include nuts but you can add them like you see above. I added chopped walnuts and it’s tasty too. Most of the time I just add lots of chocolate. It comes out a bit ooey gooey which I think is perfect, and since it’s eggless you don’t have to worry about that factor. You want to make sure to NOT overcook it or it quickly will turn dry and not nearly as good, one minute is plenty!
Chocolate chip cookie in a mug
The most amazing ooey gooey chocolate chip cookie in a mug recipe that is perfect for a late night treat, and the perfect dessert for one!
- 1 tsp oil
- 3 tbsp milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla
- 3 heaping tbsp. brown sugar not packed
- 4 tbsp flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp chocolate chips semi-sweet are fabulous
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips for the top
-
Use a tall/large mug to make this as it will bubble up when cooking.
-
Combine oil, milk, and vanilla in your mug
-
Then add brown sugar, flour, baking powder and 2 tbsp. chocolate chips. Mix well.
-
Sprinkle 1 more tbsp. chocolate chips on top and put into your microwave for 1 minute. Done!!
-
It will turn out ooey and gooey like a cookie right out of the oven, if you want it more done cook for 1 min. 5 / 10 sec. instead of 1 minute, but I LOVE the ooey gooeyness!
Super easy way to make a cookie for one right??!! Package contents up in a baggie with a tag that tells them the wet ingredients to add, put inside the Motherhood Winging It mug or another (affiliate link) tall coffee cup and it’s a perfect gift too!

My husband and I LOVE this recipe. I also put a scoop of cookie butter in the batter before I microwave. That combination, plus a scoop of vanilla ice cream, my husband said, “this is the best thing ever!” Like everyone else, I don’t think to keep tempting things in the house either…. perfect quick serving. Thanks for sharing!
OH I’m so glad you loved it too!!
I just whipped this up, late night dessert craving.
I have a policy where I won’t buy food that tempts me to binge eat, but unfortunately Pinterest exists & im a pretty decent cook! 😂
I only microwaved for 1min & served straight away with the last scrap of the vanilla ice cream!
I picked this recipe because I’m out of eggs & this recipe didn’t call for any!
This was one of the better mug cake/cookie recipe I’ve tried – will most definitely make again when the cravings call!
Awesome!
Is the batter supposed to be more like cake batter than cookie dough?
I can’t decide if I like it or not. The flavor wasn’t what I expected. The texture was pretty typical for a mug cookie. Not sure I’ll make it again.
Pretty good! Definitely satisfied the late night chocolate craving. It wasn’t even close to done after one minute though. I don’t eat raw cookie dough so I didn’t want it Ooey-gooey. About a minute and 45 seconds on high was needed to get it fully cooked.
Everyone prefers a different consistency so once you find what you like you’ll know for the future! Glad you liked it.
Super easy and very tasty!
What is the wattage of your microwave? Mine is 800 watts. Will it be cooked in 1 min?
Ours is 1000 so it may take 10 sec longer?
This is so good!! This goes beyond late night snack! I would totally serve this as a decadent dessert to friends and family. As I double the recipe into a cereal bowl (totally works!) it makes me think of the “cookie in a skillet” dessert they serve in fancy schmantcy restaurants. Ramekins should work fine too.👍
Yes!! Ooey and gooey like that!
This is creative and easy recipe for late snack cravings.
Wow does that look yummy!! I’m going to try it thank you so much! I think I’ll just make up some mixes & skip the baggies, put it right in the cups so they are ready to go except for the wet stuff. I don’t drink coffee so I have a ton of extra coffee cups sitting around.
Awesome!
