🛒 Ingredients (Serves 1):
- ½ to 1 tsp butter, melted (adds richness—use ½ tsp for a lighter cookie)
- 1 tbsp milk (dairy or non-dairy; adds moisture)
- 1–1½ tbsp sweetener (monk fruit, erythritol, stevia, or combo with real sugar)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp oat flour or all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1 tsp mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or sea salt flakes
💡 How to Make Oat Flour: Blend ~2 tbsp rolled oats until fine. This yields about ¼ cup of oat flour.
🔧 Instructions (Oven, Air Fryer, or Microwave)
🔥 To Bake (Traditional):
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, mix butter, milk, sweetener, and vanilla. Stir in cocoa, flour, and salt until dough forms.
- Shape into a cookie and bake on a parchment-lined tray for 7–9 minutes, until edges are set.
🍃 To Air Fry:
- Preheat air fryer to 325°F. Line the basket with parchment or use foil.
- Air fry cookie for 5–6 minutes, checking around 4 minutes for doneness.
⚡ To Microwave:
- Flatten dough slightly on a small microwave-safe plate.
- Microwave for 40–55 seconds (timing varies by wattage—start with 40 and check).
- Texture will be softer and cake-like, but still chocolatey and satisfying.
🍪 Quick Tips:
- For a richer cookie, stick with 1 tsp butter.
- Want extra gooey? Add a few chocolate chips on top after baking.
- A tiny splash of brewed coffee or ¼ tsp espresso powder can deepen that chocolate flavor even more.
