- ¼ cup (60 ml/2 fl oz) milk
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml/0.5 fl oz) unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- Whipped cream (optional)
- Chocolate syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Crumb Preparation: Pulverize Oreo cookies into fine, uniform crumbs using a food processor or by crushing within a sealed bag, ensuring a consistent texture throughout.
- Mug Setup: Evenly distribute cookie crumbs along the bottom and interior walls of a microwave-safe mug, creating a smooth base for the dessert.
- Liquid Integration: Pour milk into the mug and whisk thoroughly with a fork, blending the ingredients into a homogeneous mixture without any dry cookie pockets.
- Microwave Transformation: Heat the mug cake on high power for 1-1.5 minutes, monitoring closely to prevent overflow and achieve optimal texture, with the mixture rising and setting.
- Cooling and Finishing: Remove the mug carefully using protective mitts, allowing the dessert to rest for 30-45 seconds to reach a safe, enjoyable temperature and stabilize its structure.
- Garnish and Serve: Crown the warm mug cake with a luxurious dollop of whipped cream or Cool Whip, creating a visually stunning and decadent dessert ready to be savored directly from the mug.
Notes
- Crumb Consistency Matters: Ensure Oreo cookies are finely ground to create a smooth, uniform texture that prevents dry or lumpy spots in the mug cake.
- Mixing Technique: Stir milk and cookie crumbs thoroughly with a fork to eliminate dry pockets and achieve a perfectly blended batter.
- Microwave Monitoring: Watch carefully during heating to prevent overflow and potential microwave mess, keeping cooking time between 1-1.5 minutes.
- Cooling Safety: Let the mug cake rest for 30-45 seconds after microwaving to avoid burning your mouth and allow the dessert to set properly.
