Making cookies in the microwave is quick and easy! Here's a simple recipe for a basic microwave cookie:

### Microwave Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

#### Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- 1 egg yolk (discard the white)
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips (or more, if desired)

#### Instructions:
1. **Prepare Your Mug**: Use a microwave-safe mug or bowl. This is where you'll mix all your ingredients.

2. **Melt the Butter**: Add the melted butter to the mug.

3. **Mix in Sugars**: Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

4. **Add Vanilla and Salt**: Mix in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

5. **Add Egg Yolk**: Add the egg yolk and stir until everything is combined.

6. **Add Flour**: Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour until smooth.

7. **Add Chocolate Chips**: Fold in the chocolate chips (or any other mix-ins you like).

8. **Microwave**: Microwave the mug on high for about 40-60 seconds. Start with 40 seconds, and if the cookie looks too soft or undercooked, add additional time in 10-second increments. Be careful not to overcook it, as it will continue to cook while cooling.

9. **Cool and Enjoy**: Let the cookie cool for a minute or two before enjoying it straight from the mug.

### Tips:
- Keep an eye on your cookie while it cooks, as microwave times can vary.
- You can customize your cookie by adding nuts, dried fruits, or different types of chocolate!
- For a softer cookie, undercook slightly; for a firmer cookie, cook until set.

Enjoy your delicious homemade microwave cookie!
