Ingredients
- 4 Oreo cookies
- 3 tablespoons milk any type works but whole milk makes it richer
Instructions
- Place your 4 Oreo cookies into a ziplock bag or a mini food processor. Crush them into fine crumbs. If using a bag, gently smash them with a rolling pin or the back of a spoon.
- Transfer the crushed Oreos into a microwavable mug or shallow cup. Add 3 tablespoons of milk. Mix thoroughly with a spoon until you form a smooth, batter-like consistency. (The mixture should resemble a thick brownie batter.)
- Microwave the mug on high power for 1 minute. Check to ensure the cake has set. If it’s still slightly gooey, microwave for an additional 10 seconds.
- Allow the mug cake to cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying. Top with whipped cream, ice cream, or enjoy plain with a cold glass of milk for the ultimate comfort dessert.
