MONDAY RECIPE POST - SINGLE-SERVING, DEEP-DISH CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE

Thank you so much for all the greetings you left on my birthday.  These added to the enjoyment of my special day very much, and I will be thanking you all individually ASAP.  

Today I am sharing an old recipe and I found it particularly good at the time.  I should put the ingredients I need on our next shopping list as it has been too long since I last made it.  All I need to add is the ice cream and the chocolate chips!

It is made for one person but is easy to adjust for for two.

Single-Serving, Deep-Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie

The original recipe was found here at Chocolate Moosey.  Carla's has great photos, and she also has some delicious sounding desserts just like this one.

Makes: 1 deep-dish cookie

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
One or two drops of vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup flour
2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
Vanilla Ice-Cream for serving.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.  and take your individual-sized ramekin out of the cupboard.

In a medium microwavable bowl, melt the butter. Whisk in both sugars and vanilla.  Whisk in salt, baking soda and flour.  Blend in the chocolate chips.  Scrape the batter into the ramekin.

Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until the top is firm and light brown.  Let cool for a few minutes before serving with whipped cream or a small scoop of vanilla ice-cream.

When you feel like something sweet but don't want to go overboard this is just the ticket.  I didn't have any ice-cream but there was some whipped cream in the fridge.  I also mixed in a tablespoon of chopped pecans to the batter before putting it into the ramekin. The finished product was very yummy.

Thanks for looking and...
