The perfect celebratory cookie for one
Whether you’re celebrating something big, something small, or literally nothing at all—this is your sign to bake yourself a cookie. Because let’s be real: sometimes you just want one warm, fresh-from-the-oven cookie that feels like a party and tastes like happiness.
Why You’ll Love This Single Serve Funfetti Cookie
I love baking to share. I think many of us would agree that the reason we bake is to express our love for others–dropping off a batch of cookies for a friend going through a tough time, celebrating a milestone with a multi-layered cake, saying thank you with a loaf of banana bread…but sometimes it’s nice to just show yourself a little love. That’s where our single serve desserts come in. They’re a treat just for you to enjoy. And this funfetti cookie is the ultimate treat-yo-self moment. It’s got everything you love about bakery-style cookies. I’m talking gooey center, a crispy edge, hint of almond flavor and just the right amount of chew, but scaled down into one glorious portion. It comes together in one bowl with no special equipment, making it the perfect quick pick-me-up for late night cravings, solo celebrations, or random Tuesday afternoons.
Ingredients you’ll need to make these funfetti cookies
You probably already have everything in your pantry and fridge. Just add rainbow sprinkles and you’re good to go.
- Unsalted butter: Soften it up in the microwave for easy mixing!
- Brown sugar and granulated sugar: A combination of brown sugar and white sugar will give you the perfect amount of chew and crunch!
- Egg yolk: Just one yolk for the perfect single cookie texture
- Vanilla extract and almond extract: A combination of vanilla and almond will give you that perfect bakery style funfetti flavor.
- All-purpose flour: All purpose flour will give your cookie a tender crumb!
- Baking soda: Baking soda will give your cookie ust a
- Salt: A pinch of salt will balance all that sweetness.
- Rainbow sprinkles: Because we’re here to celebrate. DUH.
- White chocolate chunks: Funfetti and white chocolate is an elite flavor combo in my opinion, but if white chocolate isn’t your thing you can omit it!
How to Make a Single Serve Funfetti Cookie
You’ll be shocked how easy this is. Here’s your game plan:
- Melt your butter
Start by melting the butter in a small bowl or mug. You want it fully melted but not sizzling hot. - Mix in the sugars
Add the brown and granulated sugar to the butter and stir until smooth and glossy. - Add wet ingredients
Mix in your egg yolk and vanilla extract until fully combined. - Stir in dry ingredients
Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until a thick dough forms. Fold in sprinkles and white chocolate. - Shape and bake
Scoop your dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet (or bake it right in a ramekin for an extra gooey center!). Bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set but the center is still soft. - Let it cool (just a little)
Give your cookie a minute or two to set—if you can wait. Then dig in with a spoon or your hands, zero judgment.
This single serve funfetti cookie is the easiest way to add a little celebration to your day. It’s buttery, chewy, loaded with white chocolate and rainbow sprinkles, and comes together faster than you can decide what to watch on Netflix. Whether you’re flying solo or just need a little color therapy in cookie form—this one’s for you.
Happy baking for YOU!

- Cuisine american
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons (28 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons (26 g) packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon (13 g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- splash of vanilla extra
- splash almond extract
- 5 tablespoons (39 g) all-purpose flour
- 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons white chocolate, chopped
- 1 tablespoon rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, add the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Use a silicone spatula to mix until combined (if it’s not fully coming together, microwave the mixture for 3 seconds—and make sure your bowl is microwave safe!).
- Add the egg yolk, vanilla extract and almond extract and mix well. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined and no streaks of flour remain. Add the white chocolate and rainbow sprinkles and fold to combine.
- Divide the dough in half and roll each half into balls between your palms. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet at least 3 inches apart.
- Bake until the cookies have started to crackle on the top and are set and firm around the edges but still somewhat soft in the middle, 12 to 13 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
