Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Oreo cookies original, about 45 g, cream filling included
  • 3 tablespoons milk 45 ml, 2% or whole
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder about 1 g, measured level
  • 1 Oreo cookie, crushed optional topping
  • 2 tablespoons whipped cream optional topping

Equipment

  • Microwave-safe mug (12 oz / 350 ml)
  • Fork
  • Microwave

Method
 

  1. Put the 4 Oreos in a microwave-safe mug that holds at least 12 oz (350 ml) and crush them with a fork into fine crumbs.
  2. Pour in 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of milk and stir until the batter is smooth, with no dry crumbs at the bottom.
  3. Sprinkle in 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder and stir for about 10 seconds until it disappears.
  4. Microwave for 60 seconds at 1,000 watts, until the cake has risen, looks dry on top and springs back lightly. If the center is still wet, continue in 10-second bursts.
  5. Let the mug cake rest for 1 minute.
  6. Top with whipped cream and a crushed Oreo if you like, and serve warm. The mug will be hot.

Notes

Microwave times vary with wattage: about 75 to 90 seconds at 700 to 800 W, 60 to 70 seconds at 1,000 to 1,100 W, and 45 to 55 seconds at 1,200 W or more. Nutrition values are estimates and exclude toppings.
