So you want a chocolate chip cookie, but don't want to whip up a whooooole batch of chocolate chip cookies just for yourself? You've come to the right place. I present to you the best single serve chocolate chip cookie recipe you'll ever.
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Brown the butter over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter begins to foam and turns a golden brown, emitting a nutty aroma. Take butter off the heat and allow to cool.
In a small mixing bowl combine the butter and the sugars and mix well. Add the egg yolk, and vanilla extract and mix until smooth and homogenous.
Add the flour, salt and baking soda. Mix until just combined and no streaks of flour remain. Last, fold in the chocolate. Do not over mix.
Shape into 2 huge cookies or 4 smaller cookies and place on your prepared cookie sheet.
Bake until the edges are just golden brown and the centers have puffed up but are still gooey, about 11 minutes.
Allow to cool before eating!
