The Best Oreo Mug Cake
There aren't many cookies better than Oreos. I mean, who hasn't eaten a whole row of Oreos in one sitting? I know I have, so I wanted to share with you one of the most delicious Oreo dessert recipes you can make!
This recipe was a TikTok cake that went viral, and for a good reason. It's everything you love about Oreo cookies just in the form of a soft, moist cake.
I know, I know, it seems too good to be true, but this is real. Just like this Nutella mug cake and cookies & cream mug cake which are two other super easy sweet treats!
Why This Recipe Works
It takes 1 minute to make. Seriously, all you have to do is mix two ingredients together and microwave the Oreo cake. It's effortless!
The texture. This Oreo and milk mug cake is so fluffy and moist, and tastes better than dipping Oreos in milk!
Fit for every craving. Whether you're craving Oreos, chocolate cake, or just a decadent dessert, this is the perfect mug cake.
Ingredients
So, as I mentioned, you'll need just 2 main ingredients to make this Oreo cookie dessert and then an additional one to add a little more creaminess to the chocolate cake and turn it into a cream mug cake - but it’s totally optional to add it.
Here's everything you'll need to make Oreo mug cakes:
- 4 Oreos
- 3 Tablespoons Milk
- Whipped Cream (optional)
Make sure to grab a few packs of Oreos so you can make these air fryer fried Oreos, deep fried Oreos, Oreo balls, and Oreo cupcakes next! You can also use any flavor like cake batter, red velvet, or anything else you want.
How To Make Oreo Mug Cake
1. Prep: Grease a small ramekin, mug, or bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Make sure to coat the bottom and sides.
2. Make the cake batter: Add four Oreos to the mug and use a fork to crush them up. Pour the milk on top of the crushed Oreo cookies and crush up the Oreos even more, stirring them around while crushing as they soften in the milk.
3. Bake the cake: Put the Oreo mug cake in the microwave and cook for about 45 seconds-1 minute. Start with 45 seconds since you can always put the cake back in the microwave if it's not done. Check on it and make sure the cake looks solid. If it's liquidy, microwave for 10-20 more seconds.
4. Serve: Let the mug cake cool for a few minutes, then top with whipped cream and enjoy!

- Use any flavored Oreos that you want, like birthday cake Oreos, mint Oreos, or peanut butter Oreos.
- Serve the mug cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for the ultimate dessert.
- Bake the mug cake in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes if you don't want to use the microwave.

Okay this WAS delicious. I've tried a lot of different mug cake recipes and was skeptical but this was the right amount of gooey chocolate to satisfy a craving.
I added 1/2 tablespoon of white sugar (probably not even needed), a teaspoon of baking powder, maybe 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips on top which added a nice melty chocolate center, and used heavy cream because that's what I had. Microwaved for a total of 1 min 10 seconds (checked a few times after 45 seconds) and it was perfect!
