Ingredients
3 Oreo cookies, crushed
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Directions
- Prepare the Mug
In a microwave-safe mug, crush the Oreos with a fork or your fingers until fine crumbs. - Mix the Ingredients
Add the milk, flour, sugar, baking powder, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and salt to the crushed Oreos. Stir everything together until smooth. - Microwave
Microwave the mug on high for 1 minute or until the cake has risen and is fully cooked through. Check with a toothpick—if it comes out clean, it’s ready. - Serve
Let it cool for a minute and enjoy straight from the mug! Optional: Add whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Be careful not to overcook the mug cake as it can become dry. Start with 1 minute and check the consistency.
- For a richer cake, you can use whole milk or add a few extra crushed Oreos to the mix.
- If you prefer a thicker texture, use a bit more flour or reduce the milk.
Tips for Perfect Oreo Mug Cake
- Don’t Overmix: Stir gently to avoid a dense cake. Overmixing can result in a tough texture.
- Check Microwave Time: Microwave wattage varies. Start with 1 minute and adjust if needed. The cake should be slightly firm to the touch but not dry.
- Add Toppings: Top your mug cake with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, or extra crumbled Oreos for more flavor.
- Watch the Cake Rise: Mug cakes rise quickly, so keep an eye on them while microwaving to prevent overflow.
Recipe Variants
- Oreo Cheesecake Mug Cake: Add 2 tbsp of cream cheese to the batter for a cheesecake twist.
- Peanut Butter Oreo Mug Cake: Mix in 1 tbsp of peanut butter for a delicious combo of chocolate and peanut butter.
- Mint Oreo Mug Cake: Use Mint Oreos for a refreshing minty flavor in your cake.
