Single Serve Chocolate Chip Cookie
Recipe video above. You will be pulling this out of the oven in just over 20 minutes! Really, it's incredible how fast it is to make a small batch of cookies. :)Note - whether you make one giant cookie, two large ones or four sensible ones, this recipe is strictly a one-person affair. No obligation to share!! 😈 I prefer making 2 large 10cm/4" cookies as the ratio of soft/chewy middle to crispy edges is perfect to me, so that's the base recipe. But for a big impact cookie, make one large 17cm/7" one!

FULL RECIPE (2 large cookies)
4
Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F (170°C fan-forced). Place a sheet of baking paper on a tray.
5
Partially melt butter - Put the butter in a microwave proof bowl. Heat on high for ⏱️ 30 seconds or until mostly melted. Stir to finish melting - it should look a little milky. (Note 3)
6
Wet ingredients - Add both sugars into the butter, mix with a rubber spatula to combine. Add yolk, vanilla and salt. Mix to combine.
7
Dry ingredients - Scatter flour across surface then baking soda across flour. Mix until flour is almost fully incorporated. Mix through most of the chocolate chips (reserve some for topping).
8
Shape - Form 2 balls and flatten to 1.5cm/0.6" thick. Place on tray. If your dough is too sticky to handle, pop it in the fridge for 5 to ⏱️ 10 minutes (see Note 4).
9
Smaller/larger cookies - You can also do 3 or 4 smaller cookies (same bake time and temp) or one giant cookie (see below).
10
Bake for ⏱️ 13 - 14 minutes or until edges are tinged gold and the centre is pale golden.
11
Top - Place reserved chocolate chips on top of each (chocolate will melt and glue to surface) and sprinkle with salt flakes if using.
12
Cool ⏱️ 10 minutes - Leave cookies to cool on the tray for ⏱️ 10 minutes so they firm up and finish cooking. Then attack! (Or transfer to rack to fully cool then store in an airtight container).

ONE GIANT COOKIE ~17cm/7" wide
14
Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan-forced). Make one large ball and flatten to 2cm/0.8" thick. Bake ⏱️ 16 - 18 minutes until edges are golden and middle is pale golden. Press reserved chocolate chips on surface, cool ⏱️ 10 minutes on the tray before attacking!
