Description

This Oreo mug cake is a super quick treat ready in just 1 minute! It’s soft, gooey, and loaded with crushed Oreo cookies—no egg, no oven needed. The perfect last-minute dessert when that sweet craving hits.


Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp milk (¼ cup / 60 ml)
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (⅛ cup / 30 g)
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (⅛ cup / 25 g)
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar (⅛ cup)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (⅛ cup / 30 ml)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 Oreo cookies, crushed

Instructions

  1. In a mug or small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
  2. Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  3. Gently fold in the crushed Oreo cookies and give it a quick stir.
  4. Microwave the mug cake for 1 to 1.5 minutes at 800 watts, or until the center is just set. Check doneness with a toothpick—it should come out mostly clean.
  5. Let it cool slightly, then enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top.

Notes

Best enjoyed right away: This Oreo mug cake is at its best when warm, soft, and gooey—straight from the microwave.

Don’t reheat: Reheating tends to dry it out, so it’s best to make and enjoy it fresh.

Not freezer-friendly: This recipe doesn’t hold up well in the freezer due to its quick-cook texture.

Tips for the perfect Oreo mug cake:

  • Use a large mug (at least 10 oz) to avoid overflow while microwaving.
  • Mix the batter well to get a smooth, lump-free texture.
  • Microwave in short bursts (30 seconds at a time) to prevent overcooking.
  • Stir in extra Oreo chunks for more crunch and flavor.
  • Let it sit for 1–2 minutes before digging in—it’ll finish setting and get fluffier.
  • Top with whipped cream, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or a drizzle of melted chocolate for an even more decadent treat.
