Microwave cookie dough - mug cake step by step

You’ll need a medium size bowl. Mix together the butter and the sugar to make a paste and slowly add the egg and the vanilla. Then add the flour, salt and bicarbonate of soda. Mix the dough together and add the chocolate chips..
Divide evenly between your cups / ramekins (don’t fill to the top because they expand as they cook). Pop them into the microwave for approx 60-90 seconds depending on your microwave power. I took mine out when they had risen to the top with little bubbles which was approx 1.20 minutes. You can leave to cool down for 5 minutes if you like. Enjoy 💕.

Microwave mug cakes are not as good as real cakes. Again, don't fill any mug more than half full. This is the golden rule of mug cake baking. Start with the shortest cook time your recipe lists first. Microwave the cookie in the mug.
