Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 6 Oreo cookies
- ¼ cup (60 milliliters) milk
Dairy Component:
- ¼ cup (60 milliliters) milk
Garnish/Topping:
- 6 Oreo cookies
Instructions
- Crush Oreo cookies into fine, uniform crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- Transfer the finely ground Oreo crumbs into a microwave-safe ceramic mug, ensuring an even distribution along the bottom and sides of the mug.
- Gradually add whole milk (236.6 milliliters or 8 fluid ounces) to the Oreo crumbs, mixing carefully with a fork until the mixture becomes a smooth, consistent batter.
- Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute and 30 seconds, watching carefully to prevent overflow.
- Remove the mug from the microwave using oven mitts, as it will be extremely hot, and allow the cake to cool for 30-45 seconds.
- Garnish the warm Oreo mug cake with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of additional crushed Oreo cookies, or a light dusting of powdered sugar.
- Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the rich, chocolatey dessert directly from the mug with a spoon.
Notes
- Crumb consistency matters, so pulse Oreos until they resemble fine sand-like texture for smooth cake mixing.
- Microwave power varies, so watch carefully to prevent burning or uneven heating during the 90-second cook time.
- Milk temperature impacts batter thickness, so use room temperature milk for easier blending with cookie crumbs.
- Experiment with different Oreo flavors like mint, peanut butter, or birthday cake to create unique mug cake variations.
- Toppings can elevate the dessert, so consider adding chocolate chips, caramel drizzle, or crushed additional Oreos for extra crunch.
