I love cookies but I don’t make them often because I feel as though I’m either going to eat the whole batch of them, or they are going to go to waste. So instead, I learned to make a cookie in a cup! There are a few different ways to make a cookie in a cup but here’s one to start you off.
Ingredients:
1 Tablespoon grass-fed Butter
1 Tablespoon whey protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
1 tablespoon of coconut palm sugar
1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
1 tablespoon of almond butter
1 Egg Yolk
1/8 cup of coconut
2 heaping tablespoons of dark cacao chocolate chips
Directions:
Start by melting your butter in the microwave (about 30 to 45 seconds if thawed 1 min if frozen)
Add sugar, whey, vanilla, and salt and stir.
Add the egg yolk to your mug and stir, then add the flour and stir again. (you might need to add a little more flour if ingredients seem runny).
Next add almond butter and stir until mixed into the cookie dough completely. Add the chocolate chips, and give a final stir. Now your mixture will look like cookie dough.
Cook in microwave 40-60 seconds, start checking at 40 seconds. Do not cook past one minute. Top with shredded coconut.
Serve warm.
