1 tablespoon coconut oil, or 1 tablespoon melted butter
3 tablespoon gluten-free flour blend (I got mine at Trader Joe’s)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
½ teaspoon salt (Note – As one of my readers pointed out, this may be too much salt for some people, so if you’re not as salt-loving as we are, definitely start with a pinch and adjust based on taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg yolk
1 to 2 tablespoon chocolate chips

In a small mug/cup/ramekin (I used an espresso mug), mix together all your ingredients except the chocolate chips, until you get sticky cookie dough batter.
** This cookie won’t rise much, so you probably don’t want your mug/cup to be too big. Although I guess you could double or triple the ingredients for more cookie volume!
Stir in chocolate chips.
Place your mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 to 1-½ minutes.
** I suggest doing this in 30 second intervals so you can check on the cookie. If it still looks kind of wet/doughy on top, leave it in the microwave for a little longer. You shouldn’t need more than 1-½ minutes though — chocolate chip cookies are supposed to be gooey in the middle!
Allow mug and cookie to cool for a little bit, then dig in!

You can mix it a couple of chopped pecans too!
