Ingredients
Cakes:
- 6 tbsp whole milk
- 10 chocolate cream cookies e.g., Back To Nature, Oreo
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Topping:
- ½ cup chopped milk chocolate
- Vegetable oil as needed

Instructions
- Put milk and cookies in a bowl. Use a fork to crush the cookies until there are no big pieces.
- Add oil, vanilla, and sugar. Mix well.
- Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix until everything is combined.
- Divide the batter between 2 microwave-safe mugs (10-12oz).
- Microwave each mug for 60-90 seconds until the cakes are cooked.
- While the cakes are cooking, melt the chocolate. You can do this in a double boiler or in the microwave. Heat the chocolate in 10-second bursts, stirring each time until it is melted. Add a little vegetable oil to make it smooth and easy to pour.
- Once the cakes are cooked, top them with chopped strawberries and pour melted chocolate over them. You can eat them warm or let them cool a bit before adding the toppings.
- Serve and enjoy!
