Ingredient Notes

Here are additional details about the three ingredients needed for this Oreo mug cake recipe:

Oreos: Who doesn't love Oreo cookies? The Oreo cookies create a perfect base and adds the chocolatey sweet flavor to this mug cake recipe. Since I'm an avid Aldi fan, I commonly use Aldi's off-brand Oreo. You could even try to use flavored Oreos for something different.
Baking powder: Baking powder lightens baked goods and helps create a softer and fluffier texture. You can technically make this mug cake without baking powder, but the texture will not be the same.
Milk: The addition of milk helps to create a moist Oreo mug cake.

What does it taste like?

An Oreo mug cake tastes like a chocolate cake with hints of Oreo flavor. It is light and fluffy, just like a regular cake. It's only rubbery if it is overcooked in the microwave. Otherwise, it tastes like a regular cake.

How to Make Oreo Mug Cake in the Microwave

Step 1: Spray the interior of a mug or coffee cup lightly with baking spray. This prevents the cake from sticking to the sides. Set the mug aside.

Step 2: Blend the Oreos in a food processor until the cookies resemble fine crumbs. Alternatively, use a fork or other method to crumble the cookies as finely as possible.

Step 3: Mix the crumbs, baking powder, and milk into the prepared mug until they are thoroughly combined.

Step 4: Microwave on high for 50 seconds. Do not overcook.

Step 5: Top the mug cake with whipped cream, ice cream, or eat it by itself.
