Mug cake hack

Ingredients

• 4 pieces Oreo Cookies (crushed into fine crumbs)
• 0.25 cup Milk (whole or 2% milk, room temperature)
• 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar (white granulated sugar)
• 1 tablespoon All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking Powder (double‑acting)
• 1 teaspoon Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (Dutch‑processed preferred)
• 1 piece Oreo Cookie (topping) (whole, placed on top before microwaving)

Instructions

1. Crush Oreos

   Place the 4 Oreo cookies in a zip‑top bag or directly in the mug and crush them into fine crumbs using a fork, rolling pin, or the bottom of a glass.

   Time: PT1M

2. Add Dry Ingredients

   To the crushed Oreos add 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon cocoa powder. Stir until evenly combined.

   Time: PT1M

3. Incorporate Milk

   Pour 1/4 cup milk over the mixture and stir until a smooth batter forms, making sure to scrape the bottom of the mug.

   Time: PT1M

4. Add Topping Oreo

   Press the whole Oreo cookie into the batter so it is mostly covered.

   Time: PT30S

5. Microwave the Cake

   Microwave on high for 1 minute. The cake should be set on top but still slightly soft in the center. If not fully set, add 10‑15 seconds.

   Time: PT1M

6. Cool and Serve

   Let the mug sit for about 30 seconds to cool, then enjoy straight from the mug or top with whipped cream or ice cream.
