The 'Chocolate Covered Cake' blog has produced a recipe for chocolate chip cookies that can be baked in the microwave. As summer temperatures continue to climb, using the oven is not always ideal. This recipe ensures that you can still enjoy freshly baked cookies, without the need to slave over a hot oven.
While these treats are packed with delicious chocolate chips, the microwavable cookies are actually on the healthy side. Instead of traditional ingredients, the recipe allows you to substitute in healthy items such as coconut sugar, spelt flour and coconut oil. Once you have produced your dough, all that's required is microwaving the cookies for about one minute each. If you'd like to save your cookies for another day, the recipe also allows you to freeze the uneaten cookie dough balls.
While cookies baked in the microwave may not sound quite as good as the oven-baked variety, this clever recipe promises that you won't be able to tell the difference between the two.
