Chocolate Mint Oreo Extravaganza Mug Cake

Have you ever wanted a cake but didn’t want to bake a big one? Me too! That’s why I love this quick Chocolate Mint Oreo Extravaganza mug cakeIt’s like having a tiny chocolate mint party in your favorite mug, and it never lets me down.

Why I Love This Mug Cake So Much

I found this recipe one night when I really wanted chocolate. I had some mint Oreos left from watching movies over the weekend. I thought, “Maybe these would be good in a mug cake?”

Best idea ever!

The best part? You can’t mess this up. I’ve made it when I was tired. I’ve made it while watching TV. I’ve even made it while helping with homework. It always turns out great!

The mint makes it special. It’s not just chocolate cake – it’s fresh and cool and amazing.

Ingredients for Chocolate Mint Oreo Extravaganza Mug Cake

Let me tell you what to grab from your kitchen:

• 4 spoonfuls of regular flour
• 3 spoonfuls of sugar
• 2 spoonfuls of cocoa powder
• A tiny bit of baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 3 spoonfuls of milk (any kind works!)
• 2 spoonfuls of vegetable oil
• A few drops of mint flavoring
• 2 spoonfuls of chocolate chips
• 2 spoonfuls of crushed mint Oreos

How to Make Chocolate Mint Oreo Extravaganza Mug Cake

It’s so easy! Here’s what to do:

1. Get a big mug that can go in the microwave. Use a bigger mug than you think you need – the cake grows!
2. Put all the dry stuff in your mug. Mix it with a fork to break up any lumps.
3. Add the wet stuff and stir until it looks smooth. Don’t worry about tiny lumps – they’ll be fine.
4. Add the chocolate chips and crushed Oreos. I like to save some Oreo crumbs to put on top.
5. Microwave it for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Watch it the first time you make it. It’s done when the top isn’t wet anymore but still looks a bit soft.

Make It Even Better

Want to make it super special?

Put some mint chocolate chip ice cream on top while it’s warm. The ice cream gets melty and it’s so good!

Or add some whipped cream and extra Oreo pieces on top. It’ll look like it came from a fancy coffee shop!
