Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you need for this Oreo Mug Cake:

• 4-5 Oreo cookies (Yep, you heard right!)
• 1/4 cup milk (60ml)
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
• 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil (or melted butter)
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
• Whipped cream or ice cream (optional for topping)

The Step-by-Step Process

Let’s break down how to make this simple yet delicious Oreo Mug Cake.

1. Crush the Oreos: Place 4-5 Oreos into a microwave-safe mug. Use a spoon or fork to break them into small pieces. Don’t worry if they’re not perfectly crushed—we’re going for a rustic, homemade vibe!
2. Add the milk: Pour 1/4 cup of milk over the crushed Oreos. Mix well until the Oreos soften and the mixture becomes chocolatey.
3. Add the dry ingredients: Stir in 2 tablespoons of flour and 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder. Keep stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
4. Add sweetness and richness: If you’re feeling extra indulgent, stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1/2 tablespoon of vegetable oil (or melted butter). If you love vanilla, add a splash of vanilla extract for a little extra flavor.
5. Microwave magic: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute to 1 minute 15 seconds. The cake should rise and be set on top, but still soft and moist inside. Keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking.
6. Top it off: Once your mug cake is out of the microwave, let it cool for a minute. Then, if you’re feeling fancy, top it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream. Trust me, it’s worth it!

Customization Ideas

This recipe is totally flexible, so don’t be afraid to get creative. Here are a few ways you can customize your Oreo Mug Cake:

• Extra Oreo Crunch: Crumble an extra Oreo on top before microwaving for more of that signature crunch.
• Peanut Butter Swirl: Add a spoonful of peanut butter to the batter before microwaving for a peanut butter-chocolate twist.
• Chocolate Chips: Stir in some chocolate chips for extra gooey goodness.
• Caramel Drizzle: Top your mug cake with a drizzle of caramel sauce for an even richer dessert experience.

Microwave Tips for Success

Microwaves can vary in power, so the cooking time might differ slightly. Start with 1 minute and check the cake. If it still looks a little too wet, cook it for another 10 seconds. You don’t want to overcook it, as the cake will continue to cook a little after you take it out of the microwave.
