Ingredients

2 Tablespoons unsalted butter softened
2 Tablespoons granulated white sugar
2 Tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 Tablespoons beaten egg
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
5 Tablespoons flour
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup chocolate chips I recommend Ghirardelli baking chips
vanilla ice cream optional
caramel sauce or hot fudge optional

Instructions

To a small bowl, add the softened butter and sugars and beat with a fork or spatula until fully combined.
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, 2 Tablespoons granulated white sugar, 2 Tablespoons packed brown sugar
Add in the beaten egg and vanilla, mixing to combine.
2 Tablespoons beaten egg, ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Add in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until flour is fully incorporated and then add chocolate chips, stirring to evenly distribute.
5 Tablespoons flour, ¼ teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ cup chocolate chips
Divide the dough evenly between two 1-cup ramekins.
Microwave each, individually, for 60 seconds then carefully remove. Run a knife around edges, which will be slightly gooey, but it's ok, the cookie will continue to set up in the hot ramekin.
Top with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream and drizzle with hot fudge or caramel.
vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce or hot fudge
You're welcome.

Notes

Recipe from Picky Palate

I split the recipe into two 1-cup ramekins, which was the perfect size for me. Or, you could make one big one in a 2-cup ramekin.
