Easy Chocolate Strawberry Mug Cakes For Two

Course Dessert
Servings 2 mug cakes

Ingredients

Cakes:

  • 6 tablespoons whole milk
  • 10 chocolate cream cookies like Oreo
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Topping:

  • ½ cup chopped milk chocolate
  • Vegetable oil as needed
  • 6 strawberries roughly chopped

Instructions

  • In a bowl, add the milk and cookies. Crush the cookies with a fork until there are no large chunks.
  • Add the oil, vanilla, and sugar, and whisk to combine.
  • Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until just combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly between 2 microwave-safe mugs (10-12 oz each).
  • Microwave each mug for 60-90 seconds until the cakes are done.
  • Meanwhile, melt the chocolate over a double boiler (or microwave in 10-second increments, stirring in between until melted). Add vegetable oil as needed to make the chocolate pourable.
  • Once the cakes are done, top with chopped strawberries and pour over the melted chocolate. These are delicious warm but can be cooled slightly before adding the toppings.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • These cakes are best eaten the same day.
  • You can easily halve this recipe to make just one mug cake.
