Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Oreo cookies
- ¼ cup (60 ml) milk
- ¼ cup (60 ml) milk
- 6 Oreo cookies
Instructions
- Crumb Creation: Pulverize Oreo cookies into fine, uniform crumbs using a food processor or by crushing within a sealed plastic bag with a rolling pin.
- Mug Preparation: Evenly distribute the ground Oreo crumbs along the bottom and sides of a microwave-safe ceramic mug, creating a delicate cookie base.
- Batter Blending: Incorporate whole milk into the Oreo crumbs, whisking gently with a fork until a smooth, homogeneous mixture forms, eliminating any dry pockets.
- Microwave Magic: Cook the mug cake on high power for 1 minute and 30 seconds, monitoring closely to prevent potential overflow and ensure even heating.
- Cooling and Finishing: Allow the piping-hot cake to rest briefly, then embellish with a cloud of whipped cream, an artistic sprinkle of additional crushed Oreos, or a delicate dusting of powdered sugar.
- Indulgent Serving: Dive into the warm, decadent chocolate treat immediately, savoring the rich flavors and velvety texture directly from the mug with a spoon.
Notes
- Crumb Consistency Matters: Ensure Oreo cookies are ground uniformly to prevent lumpy texture and guarantee smooth cake batter.
- Milk Mixing Technique: Stir gently with a fork, incorporating milk slowly to create a lump-free, creamy mixture that prevents dry spots.
- Microwave Monitoring: Watch cake closely during cooking to avoid overflow and potential microwave mess, stopping if batter rises rapidly.
- Cooling Critical: Allow brief resting time after microwaving to prevent burning your mouth and let cake set to perfect moist consistency.
