Ingredients
  

For the Mug Cake
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour Or use a gluten-free baking blend for a gluten-free version.
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons crushed cookies (like Oreo) For added crunch and flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a microwave-safe mug, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly using a fork or a small whisk to avoid lumps.
  2. Pour in the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until you achieve a smooth batter with no dry pockets.
  3. Gently fold in the crushed cookies, mixing them into the batter evenly.
  4. Place your mug in the microwave and cook for 30-40 seconds. The cooking time may vary depending on the power of your microwave, so keep an eye on it.
  5. Let the mug cake cool for a minute before devouring it to avoid any burnt tongues!

Notes

For best results: Don't overcook the mug cake to avoid a rubbery texture. You can customize the cake with toppings like chocolate sauce or ice cream and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to two days, reheat in the microwave for 10-15 seconds before enjoying.
