Instructions
- Start by melting your butter in the microwave. Butter should just be melted, not boiling.

- Separate your egg and add the yolk only to your cup. Stir to combine.
- Add flour, then stir again. Measure a scant, slightly less than full, 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour.
- Add the chocolate chips, and give a final stir. Now your mixture will look like cookie dough.
- Add Reese's peanut butter cup and press down into dough. Smooth cookie dough over peanut butter cup so it is completely covered.
- Cook in microwave 40-60 seconds, start checking for doneness at 40 seconds. Mine takes 50 seconds.

- If the cookie is dry or cake like, try less time.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
