Ingredients
  

For the Cakes:

  • 6 tablespoons of whole milk
  • 10 chocolate cream cookies such as Back To Nature or Oreo
  • 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt

For the Topping:

  • 1/2 cup of chopped milk chocolate
  • Vegetable oil as needed
  • 6 strawberries roughly chopped

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine the milk and cookies, using a fork to crush the cookies until no big chunks remain.
  • Add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and sugar to the bowl, 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 ounces each).
  • Microwave each mug individually for 60-90 seconds until the cakes are done.
  • While the cakes are cooking, melt the chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring in 10-second intervals until smooth. Add vegetable oil as needed to make the chocolate runny and pourable.
  • Once the cakes are done, top them with the chopped strawberries and pour over the melted chocolate. Enjoy them warm or let them cool slightly before adding the toppings.

Notes

  • These cakes are best enjoyed the same day.
  • You can easily halve this recipe to make a single serving.
