You guys know how much I love a mug cake. After making my brownie mug cake and banana bread mug cake, I knew I had to make an Oreo mug cake next. And what’s even better with this Oreo microwave cake is actually easier since it only needs two ingredients!

I make my mug cakes in the microwave, but if you don’t have a microwave you can still make this in the oven! Mug cake crisis averted. 

Ingredients Needed

  • Oreos: mix it up and use your favorite Oreo flavor! Classic Oreos are great, but I also love using mint or peanut butter Oreos! 
  • Milk: you can use regular milk or dairy-free milk like soy milk, oat milk, or almond milk to make the recipe completely dairy free and vegan.

Recipe Developer Expert Tips

  • When I tested this recipe with semisweet chocolate chips, I personally loved it because I found it balanced out the sweetness of the Oreos, so feel free to add a tablespoon or so if you want.
  • I love topping this mug cake with homemade whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream! 
  • Mix it up with different Oreo flavors throughout the year! I love using Halloween Oreos and Christmas Oreos.
  • Don’t use a mug or ramekin that’s too small, otherwise it might overflow in the microwave or oven. 
  • Take the mug cake out of the microwave or oven when it still looks slightly under-cooked – that’s the secret to a moist (not dry) mug cake!

2 Ingredient Oreo Mug Cake

Oreo lovers, you have got to try this 2 ingredient Oreo mug cake! You can make it in the microwave or in the oven and it’s ready in just 5 minutes. This dessert for one is perfect when I want a little sweet treat in the evenings. Plus, you can easily make it vegan or dairy-free!

Ingredients
 

  • 6 Oreo cookies
  • ¼ cup (63 ml) milk of choice, (regular or vegan)

Optional

Instructions
 

  • Add the Oreo cookies to a mug or ramekin and roughly break them up with a fork. You can also chop them up beforehand, which can be less messy if your ramekin or mug is on the smaller side. The cookies don't need to be broken up into crumbs, just into small chunks.
  • Pour in the milk and stir together until completely combined. It will look chunky – this is normal.
  • If using chocolate chips, stir them in now.

Microwave Method

  • Microwave the mug cake for 45-90 seconds ( the timing will depend on your microwave, so start at the lower number), until the mug cake looks only slightly under-cooked on the very top.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes then top with whipped cream or ice cream if desired and dig in!

Oven Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉, then place the oven safe ramekin into the oven for 20-30 minutes, or until the mug cake looks only slightly under-cooked on the very top.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes then top with whipped cream or ice cream if desired and dig in!

Equipment

1 Regular Sized Mug or Ramekin

Notes

This recipe yields one mug cake.
Milk: any kind of milk will work – can be oat, almond, soy, or other vegan milk to make it a fully vegan mug cake, or use regular cows milk.
Oreos: you can use any kind of Oreo cookies and even flavored ones if you’d like!
Chocolate Chips: Chocolate chips are optional – semisweet chocolate chips will cut the sweetness of the mug cake a little!
Storage: The Oreo mug cake is best enjoyed right away, not made in advance.
