Oreo Microwave Lava Cake (Mug)

Instrucciones

1. 1

   Lightly grease a microwave-safe mug (10–12 oz) with a little butter or oil — it helps the cake lift and not stick, dear.

2. 2

   In the mug, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

3. 3

   Stir in the milk, oil (or melted butter), and vanilla until you have a smooth batter. Fold in the 2 crushed Oreo halves so you get little chocolatey bits throughout.

4. 4

   Make a shallow well in the center of the batter and place the Oreo with the cream center (or the reserved cream) facing down into the well. Gently press so it’s nestled but still covered by batter.

5. 5

   Microwave on high for 50–75 seconds. Start checking at 50 seconds — the edges should be set while the center stays soft and molten. Microwaves vary, so adjust time in 5–10 second bursts if needed. Avoid overcooking or it becomes cakey instead of gooey.

6. 6

   Let the mug cake rest 30–60 seconds (the center will stay molten but cool enough to eat). Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top if you like.
