The title of this post sounds kinda sad and loner-ish huh, like saddest book of all time, microwave cooking for one. But NO! There is nothing remotely sad about a chocolate chip cookie for one! For this is perfection. This is a smaller, more manageable, (and less go up a dress size – able) version of the amazing skillet cookies that I keep seeing all around the interwebs.
Oh, and did I mention it will take you mere moments to whip up? It’s so simple it hardly needs a recipe, but here goes…

- Grab some good vanilla ice cream, a spoon, and dig in...
