This delicious Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is the perfect little treat. This peanut butter chocolate chip one cookie recipe is thick, soft and chewy. My go-to for late night snacking when the cookie craving hits.
Do you remember my Single Serving Brownie Recipe? The goal was to create a small single brownie, so I didn’t eat a whole pan of them! Well I’m back again with single serving happiness, but this time I’m sharing cookies! Cookies are simply the best! And if there happens to be a dozen cookies in my kitchen, you better believe I’m going to gobble them all up. Now, let’s get to all of the delicious details!
Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Ingredients
These cookies include two of my favorite ingredients: peanut butter and chocolate. Aside from the peanut butter and chocolate, you’ll find all of the other normal cookie ingredients in these little gems. Here’s the lineup:
- Flour
- Brown sugar
- Baking powder
- Peanut butter
- Butter
- Milk
- Vanilla
- Chocolate Chips
How Do You Make Single Serving Cookies?
This recipe is very straight forward. First, preheat the oven or toaster to 350 degrees. Yes, toaster oven! This recipe is perfect for a toaster oven, as there’s no reason to heat up your big oven for just one cookie. Then simply stir together flour, sugar, and baking powder in small bowl. Add peanut butter, butter, milk and vanilla and continue to stir until well combined.
Next, fold the chocolate chips into the dough.
Spray a small area of a cookie sheet with nonstick spray, or use a silicone baking mat. Form dough into one cookie and place on pan.
Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes… if you can wait that long!
What’s So Great About This One Cookie Recipe?
- No need to share! This cookie is all yours!
- This cookie recipe is super quick! From start to finish, you’ll have a homemade chocolate chip cookie in under 20 minutes.
- This one cookie recipe makes a deliciously soft & chewy cookie!
- It’s filled with peanut butter goodness! Yes, please!
- There’s not much prep time needed to make this cookie. No need to get out your electric mixer or chill the dough.
Tips For Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie
- If you need two cookies, feel free to double this recipe.
- Try adding sprinkles to make a festive cookie for one.
- You can use semi sweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips for these single serving cookies.
- For the prettiest presentation, add a few chocolate chips onto the top of the cookie before baking it.
- For the best possible results, be sure that you measure ingredients accurately. Accuracy is important in all baking, but with a cookie this small, it’s especially important.
Variations For This One Cookie Recipe
Want to mix things up? Feel free to add in:
- Baking chips: Of course milk, dark, white, or semisweet chocolate chips work well in these single serving cookies. Some other fun options are peanut butter chips, butterscotch chips, cinnamon chips, caramel chips, or toffee bits.
- Nuts: A very small amount of chopped pecans, walnuts, almonds, peanuts, and/or macadamia nuts would give this cookie a delicious crunch.
- Sprinkles and Candy: Toss in a handful of colored sprinkles if you’d like to make this cookie extra festive! You could even add in mini M&M’S or REESE’S mini pieces.
- Dried fruit: Dried cherries, cranberries, apricots, or other dried fruit (that is chopped into small pieces, if need be) would be a yummy addition to this recipe.
Now the fun part – time to relax and eat a cookie! Grab your cookie, some tea or milk, and enjoy your Single Serving Cookie!

Ariadne says
How peanut buttery is this? Should i melt a little extra pb on the top right out of the oven?
Pamela says
You can taste the peanut butter in the cookie but a little extra pb melted on top sounds amazing!
Dee @ The Kitchen Snob says
How fun! I’m going to double it and make one each for me and my man. Do you melt the butter before you add it?
Pamela says
Hey Dee, melted or very soft will work. You want it soft enough to be able to mix it with a spoon. Enjoy the cookie!
Anna @ shenANNAgans says
Just one cookie? Is it the size of a bus? How does that even work? My brain boggles at the thought of making just one. Ha. 🙂
grace says

I’m loving the idea of making just one cookie, honestly, bathing suit season is just around the corner and one cookie = great. 10 cookies = not so much. And I agree, chocolate and peanut make my world go round, in small doses of course!! Yummy yum yum in my tummy tum tum. Thanks for sharing!!
Dannii @ Hungry Healthy Happy says
Single serving? But, these look so good that I want to make about a thousand of them!
Pamela says
Thousands! I love your enthusiasm. :D)

A clever idea. I always feel that it is very lonely for the cookie if I just have one.
