COOKING INSTRUCTIONS: the exact cooking time will vary on the size/wattage of microwave you are using. For a 1,000 watt microwave, cook for one minute at 80% power. For a 1,200 or 1,500 watt microwave, cook for 45 seconds at 75% power. You may need to play around with the exact timing based on your microwave. The key is to NOT OVERCOOK the mug cookie. The top should puff and spring back lightly to the touch.
- 5
Serve warm (don't let it cool! It is infinitely better served immediately) with ice cream, if desired.
