This is the best golden Oreo mug cake recipe

Key Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you will need to make this mug cake. Make sure to scroll down to the recipe card for the full detailed ingredient measurements.
- Golden Oreos: use regular golden Oreos, not Double Stuf. Leftovers from the pack are perfect for my golden Oreo truffles or a golden Oreo pie crust.

- Ice cream & berries- This is a great combination to top your cake with. Makes it that much better! A scoop of my homemade vanilla ice cream is perfect here.
How to Make Golden Oreo Mug Cake
- Crush the golden Oreos. In a microwave-safe mug that holds at least 8 oz, crush the golden Oreos with a fork. You can also crush them in a ziplock bag with a rolling pin, then transfer them to the mug.
- Add the milk and truffle. Pour the milk over the crushed Oreos and stir until the batter is lump free. Press the white chocolate truffle into the center and spoon a little batter over it to cover.
- Microwave. Microwave on high for 60 to 90 seconds, until the cake looks set and not liquid. Start with less time and add more only if needed.
- Top and enjoy. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and fresh berries, and dig in while it’s warm!
Golden Oreo Mug Cake FAQs
You can have golden Oreo mug cake as is, especially with the white chocolate truffle in the center, but you could also top it with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, sprinkles, berries, or even a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
Use a mug that holds at least about 8 oz of liquid for golden Oreo mug cake, so nothing overflows in the microwave. My snickerdoodle mug cake follows the same rule.
Some of my favorite mix-ins for golden Oreo mug cake are white chocolate chips, sprinkles, or candy-coated chocolates if you decide not to go with the white chocolate truffle.
Yes! Oreos are naturally dairy free, so just switch to almond milk or any non-dairy milk for a dairy-free golden Oreo mug cake. Skip the white chocolate truffle or use a dairy-free one, since regular white chocolate contains milk.
A rubbery golden Oreo mug cake means it was probably overcooked a little. Start with 60 seconds in the microwave, then add more time in short bursts only if needed. For more one-mug treats, my microwave desserts for one roundup has plenty.
