Single Serve Cookies
Single serve cookies, like the name indicates, are cookies that make exactly one cookie. These cookies are so convenient when you have that 12 am cravings to dig into one chocolate chipper.
This saves you the trouble of getting out your mixer, cookie trays and then having to wash up huge mixing bowls etc. I used my small electric whisk to cream the butter and sugar in this recipe.

Eggless Salted Caramel Chocolate Cookie
I have used Hershey’s sea salt caramel chips to bake this cookie. You can use any kind of caramel chips. And i highly recommend sprinkling some flaky sea salt over the cookie before baking. The sea salt elevates the flavors to a different level.
Psst.. let me let you in on a secret- I add a sprinkle of sea salt to my hot cocoa as well. Do you have any such weird preferences? Tell us in the comments.
Ingredients- Substitutes and Replacements
1.All purpose flour– This recipe works well with both all purpose flour and whole wheat flour. You can also use a mix of both in equal proportions.
2.Butter- Softened butter at room temperature yields the best results.
3.Sea salt caramel chips– These are what make the true flavor components of this recipe.
4.Baking soda– Soda Bi Carb is the leavening agent used here. For best results, please use a standardised measuring spoon or weighing scale to measure all the ingredients.
5.Cold milk– this is an eggless recipe. Cold milk is what helps to bring the dough together. Do not use room temperature milk or warm milk.
Prep Work
- Begin with softening the butter. There s no need to melt the butter.
- Use a whisk to lightly cream the butter and sugar. This is a single serve cookie. So this does not require extensive creaming of butter and sugar like we do for a large batch of cookies.
- Refrigerate the cookie dough for 5 to 10 mins if you have the time. This step improves the texture of the cookie. Optional but highly recommended.
Baking Time and Temperature
While i have baked this cookie at 180 C for 12 to 14 mins, please take note that oven timings will vary depending on your oven.
FAQs- Eggless Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies
Can this dough be doubled to make a large batch of sea salt caramel chocolate chip cookies?
I won’t recommend doing this. Because scaling everything in this single serve cookie recipe may or may not give successful results.
Making Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookie for One step by step:
Preheating– Preheat the oven at 180C for 10 mins.
Creaming the butter and sugar– Add the sugar and butter in a bowl. Use a balloon whisk and whisk well for a min.
Adding the remaining ingredients– Now, add the flour, salt, vanilla, cocoa powder to the bowl. Using a spoon, combine everything together in such a way that the butter sugar mixture is evenly incorporated with the rest of the ingredients.
Your mixture should look similar to sand now.
Making the dough– Now add milk by 1/2 tsp and begin kneading the dough Mix all the ingredients together until you get a crumbly mass of dough.
Now, add the caramel chips and incorporate it into the dough.
Baking the cookie– When done, divide the dough into small portions. Shape into a ball, slightly press and flatten it.
I used a small skillet to bake one portion of the cookie. I wanted smaller cookies and hence, i divided the dough into two.
You can bake the whole dough into one large cookie too.
Sprinkle some flaked sea salt over the cookie just before baking.
Place the cookies on a lined baking sheet and bake for 12 to 14 mins or until cookie moves freely and the bottom of the cookie hardens.
Once done, let cool on a cooling rack for a few mins. Serve slightly warm with a dollop of ice cream or enjoy as it is.
