How To Make an Oreo Mug Cake

This recipe takes just two ingredients– Oreo cookies and milk! You can even keep Oreo cookies in your pantry for whenever you get a craving. Love that!

Are Mug Cakes Supposed To Be Gooey?

After being cooked, mug cakes should be moist inside with a slightly gooey center. If it’s too wet in the middle, microwave for another 20-30 seconds. If you prefer a mug cake that’s softer in the center, cook for a little less time than the instructions state. For best results, allow cake to cool off for a minute or two after heating.

Some delicious toppings for this single serving cake include: Warm Roasted Figs And Hazelnuts, White Vanilla Whipped Cream Frosting (Easy Recipe), or Microwave Baked Apples.
