Chocolate chip cookie cake!

Turns out, chocolate chip cookie dough + ramekin = previously unknown bites of BLISS. This dessert is AMAZING. So I've been using the same recipe for a small batch of chocolate chip cookies for a while now. And though it's good, I was craving something a little more... substantial last night. Something a little cakey, perhaps.

I'm sure store-bought dough would work just as well, but it's so simple to make your own. I even have an actual recipe! Of course, this can be made into regular cookies too.

Ingredients:
- 3 tbsp butter, softened
- 3 tbsp white sugar
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp beaten egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour (approx 2.2 oz if going by weight)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions:
- Cream softened butter together with white and brown sugar
- Add in vanilla extract and egg
- Add in dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking powder), mix well (it will be a thick batter)
- Stir in chocolate chips
- Divide the dough into 2 lightly greased ramekins. You want the dough to fill about 2/3 of the container, as it will rise. If there is extra dough, just make cookies from it, or put into a third ramekin.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 20-30 minutes

This is what comes out of the oven. Lightly golden brown, and piping
hot. Now is the time, if you wish, to add a scoop of ice cream on top.

This is a perfect blend of cookie and cake. The center is soft and warm,
while the edges are slightly chewy.

Am I making this dessert again tonight? You betcha!
