    Today I'm sharing my shortcut microwave individual pizookie recipe for when you have a mad pizookie craving, but don't want to turn the oven on! Come on, I know I'm not the only one. How to Make a Pizookie for 2 people in the microwave

    Chocolate Chip Individual Pizookie Recipe

     A few weeks back I went to BJ's with some friends and finally had my first pizookie.

    What is a pizookie?

    It's basically a cookie that's baked in a little mini pizza pan and served piping hot with ice cream and usually some sort of topping-- it's heavenly! I know pizookies are served at other places too, but if you are headed to BJ's soon, the new salted caramel one has been beckoning me back there ever since I tried it. So good!

    The best chocolate chip pizookie recipe made in the microwave

    To curb my cravings and since I don't have pizookie pans or will power, I decided to make up a quick batch of chocolate chip cookie dough in a very small quantity and quickly bake it in the microwave, just like my original coffee cake in a mug and pumpkin coffee cake.

    This way I wouldn't have dozens of cookies staring me down every time I walked into the kitchen, and I could get it into my face much faster than I could if I had to wait for the oven to heat up, etc.

    BUT, if you want a full-on Pizookie experience you have to try my chocolate chunk Pizookie! It's large and it's in charge!

    But wait, can you microwave cookie dough?

    Yes, yes you can. The result of this pizookie recipe is different and more cake-y than if you were to bake it in the oven and it doesn't get crispy but that's okay when it comes to pizookies.

    The result here was a quick, hot, gooey microwave chocolate chip cookie pizookie perfection!

    How to Make a Pizookie

    This pizookie recipe makes two fairly big cookies and is just enough not to make me want another, especially when topped with ice cream and hot fudge. It starts by mixing up the cookie dough in a small bowl just like regular cookies but since it's such a small amount, mixing it by hand is pretty easy.

    How to make a pizookie step by step

    I used some small ceramic saucers I had laying around, and they worked perfectly for "baking" the cookies in. Use what you have! Ramekins, small bowls, deep plates or even a mug would work.

    Use your fingers to press the dough out into an even layer in your vessel of choice. At this point, I try to touch it as little as possible so that I actually end up with some dough to bake. Is anyone else a chronic food picker when cooking?

    My pizookie recipe recipe to go into the microwave

    When "baking" in the microwave it's important to keep a close eye on things, or they can get bad pretty fast.

    REALLY fast. Do you like the texture of erasers? No? Then watch carefully!

    The key to a good pizookie is that it's just sightly under-baked. Each microwave will cook differently as will different cooking dishes and depth of the cookie, so there will likely be some trial and error. Mine was perfectly cooked at about the 50-second mark.

    This Pizookie recipe won't be golden brown like it would be if baked in the oven, but it will be cooked-- promise! No one will notice anyway when a big scoop of vanilla ice cream starts melting over the top and you're digging in.
