2-Ingredient Oreo Mug Cake: Easy No-Bake TikTok Inspired Treat

This 2-ingredient Oreo Mug Cake is truly a milk and cookie masterpiece! Itโ€™s no wonder this super simple, quick, and easy recipe went viral on TikTokโ€“itโ€™s delicious, decadent, and tastes like my favorite chocolate lava cake with a satisfying spongy, moist texture.

What I love most about this small-batch, no-bake cake is that it is the perfect sweet treat for a single serving, because sometimes I just need a few bites to cure my chocolate craving!

A mug cake is like a miracle, microwavable cake for oneโ€“no oven, no-bake, no fuss. Itโ€™s simply crushed Oreo cookie crumbs mixed with cream (or your favorite milk) in a mug, microwaved for 80 seconds, and fancied up with your favorite toppings. This is the fastest and easiest way to sample a slice or take a few bites when you donโ€™t want to bake an entire cake.

How to Make an Oreo Mug Cake in the Microwave

With just 2 ingredients, it is so quick and easy to make a moist, decadent dessert that tastes delicious! And itโ€™s ready in 80 seconds! Itโ€™s perfectly portioned for a single serving sweet treat.

  1. Add Oreos to a food processor to create a fine crumb consistency.
    Pro Tip: You can also place your Oreos in a small plastic bag and smash them or crush them directly in the mug if you donโ€™t mind your cake having little chunks of Oreo in it.

  2. Add cookie crumbs to the mug and pour in the cream.
  3. Stir to combine.

  4. Microwave on high for 75-90 seconds.
    Pro Tip: The cake is done when it is set and bubbly. It should loosely resemble a soft cake sponge. If it still seems a little wet, give the cake a little stir to mix in the liquid. It wonโ€™t look exactly like cake once itโ€™s done.

Tips

  • If you mash your Oreos until they are as a very fine consistency, your cake will comes out nice and smooth.
  • If you want to make more than one mug cake, you should cook them separately in the microwave.
  • For fluffier mug cake, use ยผ teaspoon baking powder when you add the cream.
  • Donโ€™t worry about the Oreos sticking to the side of the mug. The extra stuffing in the Double Stuf Oreos creates a little extra โ€œoilโ€ so that your Oreo Mug Cake doesnโ€™t get crusty. 

Storage Tips

  • To Store: This mug cake should be eaten right awayโ€“I do not recommend storing it!
