Why This Is The Best Oreo Mug Cake Recipe

Oreos are one of the most iconic cookies out there—and if you’ve ever eaten a whole row in one sitting (guilty here!), then you know how addictive they can be. That’s why I’m so excited to share this Oreo mug cake recipe, one of the easiest and most delicious Oreo desserts you can make at home.

This recipe first went viral on TikTok, and it’s easy to see why. In just minutes, you get everything you love about Oreos in the form of a warm, soft, and fluffy cake. It’s rich, chocolatey, and perfectly moist, all without turning on the oven. I usually make two in a row—it's almost impossible to eat just one of these!

And the best part? It’s foolproof. If you’ve tried my Nutella mug cake and cookies & cream mug cake, then you already know how quick and satisfying these single-serve desserts can be. This Oreo version is just as easy—and even more irresistible.

Ingredients for Oreo Mug Cake

So, as I mentioned, you'll need just 2 main ingredients to make this Oreo cookie dessert and then an additional one to add a little more creaminess to the chocolate cake and turn it into a cream mug cake - but it’s totally optional to add it.

Here's everything you'll need to make a Oreo mug cake:

• 4 Oreos
• 3 Tablespoons Milk
• Whipped Cream (optional for serving)

Make sure to grab a few packs of Oreos so you can make these air fryer fried Oreos, deep fried Oreos, Oreo balls, and Oreo cupcakes next! You can also use any flavor like cake batter, red velvet, or anything else you want.

How To Make Oreo Mug Cake

Step 1: Prep

Grease a small ramekin, mug, or bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Make sure to coat the bottom and sides.

Step 2: Make the Cake Batter

Add four Oreos to the mug and use a fork to crush them up. Pour the milk on top of the crushed Oreo cookies and crush up the Oreos even more, stirring them around while crushing as they soften in the milk.

Step 3: Cook the Oreo Mug Cake

Put the Oreo mug cake in the microwave and cook for about 45 seconds-1 minute. Start with 45 seconds since you can always put the cake back in the microwave if it's not done. Check on it and make sure the cake looks solid. If it's liquidy, microwave for 10-20 more seconds.

Step 4: Serve

Let the mug cake cool for a few minutes, then top with whipped cream and enjoy!

Expert Tips To Follow

• Boost the texture and rise. For an extra fluffy Oreo mug cake, whisk in 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and ½–1 teaspoon of baking powder. The sugar balances the chocolate flavor, while the baking powder helps the cake rise higher and stay soft instead of dense.

• Choose your milk. This Oreo dessert works with any type of milk. Whole milk gives the richest texture, but you can also use almond milk, soy milk, oat milk, or any non-dairy substitute. Each one slightly changes the flavor but still makes a moist cake.

• Make it extra chocolatey. Stir in 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder for a deeper chocolate flavor, and add a small handful of chocolate chips before microwaving. The cocoa intensifies the color and taste, while the chips melt into gooey pockets of chocolate.

• Experiment with flavored Oreos. This recipe isn’t limited to classic Oreos—you can swap in birthday cake Oreos, mint Oreos, peanut butter Oreos, or any seasonal flavor to create fun variations. Each adds its own twist while keeping the same easy method.

• Add toppings for a decadent finish. Serve your mug cake warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for the ultimate dessert experience. The contrast of hot cake and cold ice cream is especially irresistible.

• Bake instead of microwave. Don’t have a microwave? No problem. Transfer the batter into an oven-safe ramekin and bake at 350°F for about 10 minutes, or until the cake is set. This gives you the same soft and fluffy result, just with a slightly crispier edge.
