Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Milk
- 1 teaspoon Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or coffee cup, melt the unsalted butter by microwaving it for about 10-15 seconds. Be careful not to overheat.
Add the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the melted butter. Stir well to combine.
Mix in the all-purpose flour until the mixture begins to resemble cookie dough. It may look crumbly but will come together after the next step.
Add the milk, one teaspoon at a time, and stir until the dough becomes soft and holds together.
If desired, sprinkle some colorful sprinkles into the dough and lightly stir to distribute them evenly.
Microwave the mug on high power for 45 seconds to 1 minute, depending on your microwave's strength. The top of the cookie should look set but still soft; avoid overcooking.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot!), allow the cookie to cool for a minute, and enjoy straight from the cup.
