Chocolate Chip Cookies in a mug – Just 45 seconds is all it takes in the microwave to make this fudgy cookie that will just melt in your mouth. The best mug recipe ever
Chocolate Chip Cookies In A Mug
Oh my goodness of all the mug recipes I’ve tried, this has to be my favorite one of all. The texture is spot on and the flavors are amazing.
It’s just like eating a simple chocolate chip cookie with the difference being, that this one cooks in less than a minute. I promise you that you will love this Chocolate Chip Cookies In A Mug.
Mug cakes resolve the ultimate dilemma when it comes to baking: I am craving just one cookie – Should I make the whole batch?
With this recipe, you can satisfy your craving without making tons of cookies that you will later eat and regret. Or maybe you want to reward your child for a good grade. Cookies in less than 5 minutes (or even 3)
I won’t lie, I have a strong sweet tooth and this is the perfect little dessert for me. No fuss, no muss just a quick cookie without messing up your kitchen. When you see how delicious the chocolate chip melts inside, you’ll be in heaven.
The difference between this recipe and the Nutella Cake, low-fat brownie, and Banana bread is the quantity of liquid and lack of leavening inside the dough.
You will notice how quickly this becomes cookie dough. Thick just like Play-Doh so it cooks faster and crispier. Plus it doesn’t have the “chewy” texture (which I love) of the other ones. I mixed these Chocolate Chip Cookies in a bowl instead of the mug itself.
As always, you can make them in advance and just microwave at the last minute. Still, prep is easy and takes 3 or 4 minutes! so if you come home from work exhausted, you won’t be opposed to making yourself this yummy cookie. My daughters fought over them and I had to make an extra batch.
Hope you can make these Chocolate Chip Mug Cookies at home and let me know how they come out.

HI, thanks for this but the recipe misses on where to put the vanilla?
Sorry about that Zeus, I updated the recipe.
After microwaving for 3 min it semi resembled a cookie. It didn’t taste good and it was very yellow. It looks nothing like the pictures in the recipe. I think there was too much yolk for the small amount of other ingredients added. I would not recommend this recipe.
Oh I am so sorry it didn’t work out for you Byarn. Thanks for letting me know.
Just made this. Came out perfectly! This may be one of my favorite dessert in a mug recipes. Thank you!
you’re very welcome Lauren! thanks for stopping by!
I used tablsp. Mayonnaise as a substitute for egg yolk. The recipe came out great. No it doesn’t look like a cookie from the oven but it sure took care of that Chocolate chip cookie craving.
That’s a great tip Paulin! Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic!! Came out perfect! Will certainly be making this when I need that sweet fix!
Thanks Joanie! I’m glad you like it!
Had to add 1 1/4 teaspoon of milk just to get it to stick more. It came out of the microwave smelling like a fresh baked cookie.But it was really dry and a little burnt, so I would suggest put it in the microwave for less than 2 minutes. After I tasted the dryness of the cookie, I put in a few splashes of half&half milk and tastes fine. Not the best one i have made but still good.
I am thinking the cookie was a bit overcooked.
I aslo halved the yolk after reading Byarn’s comment.
It’s great now!!!
Yay! I’m so glad! thanks for the updates!
So good as written – also made a “healthier” version – reduced butter by 1/2, reduced sugars slightly, subbed almond flour for regular flour and 40 seconds later it was outrageously good and satisfying!!
Thanks for those great ideas to make it healthier Amy!
I wanted to like this…but it was TERRIBLE. It had all the right ingredients but did not rise at all and in no way resembled the picture. I added an extra 30 seconds to somewhat finish it but the consistency wasn’t good–it was weirdly grainy?
Oh Rebecca, so sorry the recipe did not work out for you.
Do you nutrition #s for chocolate chip
I just added it Marguerite
Made a ton of cookie in a mugs before. This is only one that turned out in mush. Unable to eat, dirty dishes now in sink, wasted ingredients, and unsatisfied sweet tooth. Do not recommend this recipe.
Thanks for your review Crystal! I am sorry you didn’t enjoy the recipe… It may have been overbaked
