Remember the step-by-step directions and detailed ingredient list are below, in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post, as well as the nutritional information.

Cookies: The star of the show, cookies add a deliciously crunchy texture and rich flavor to the mug cake. Whether you choose chocolate chip, Oreo, shortbread, or another favorite, they will crumble beautifully into the batter, infusing every bite with their distinctive taste. The choice of cookie can dramatically influence the flavor profile of your mug cake, making it customizable to your cravings.
Milk: Milk is essential for creating a smooth, cohesive batter, contributing moisture and richness. It helps to bind all the ingredients together, ensuring your mug cake turns out soft and delicious. The fat content in the milk also plays a crucial role in achieving a tender crumb, enhancing the overall mouthfeel of the cake.

Pro Tips

Creating the perfect mug cake with cookies in an air fryer involves a blend of creativity and technique. Here are some professional tips to ensure your dessert is as delicious as it is easy to make:

Selecting the Right Mug: Use a ceramic or glass mug confirmed to be air fryer-safe. The ideal mug should hold at least 8 ounces to accommodate the cake’s rise without overflowing.
Cookie Choice Matters: The type of cookies you choose will significantly impact the flavor and texture of your mug cake. Experiment with cookies (chocolate chip, Oreo, snickerdoodle, etc.) to find your favorite combination.
Room-Temperature Ingredients: Before starting, ensure your milk and butter are at room temperature for a smoother batter and a more evenly cooked cake.
Gentle Mixing: Stir the batter just until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing can lead to a dense, tough cake rather than a light and fluffy one.
Crumbled Cookie Size: When adding your crumbled cookies, a mix of sizes from fine crumbs to larger chunks offers a variety of textures in each bite, making the cake more exciting and enjoyable.
Don’t Overfill: Fill your mug no more than two-thirds full to give the cake room to rise. This prevents overflow and ensures even cooking.
Check for Doneness Early: Begin checking if the cake is done a couple of minutes before the recipe’s suggested time. Air fryers can vary, and factors like the size and shape of the mug can affect cooking time.
Cooling Time: Let the mug cake cool for a few minutes after cooking. This makes it safer to eat and allows the cake to set for optimal texture.
Toppings Galore: Don’t shy away from adding toppings. A dollop of whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream, or extra crumbled cookies can transform your mug cake into a more decadent treat.
Experiment with Flavors: To complement the flavor of the cookies you’ve chosen, consider adding a dash of cinnamon, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a splash of coffee to the batter.

By following these pro tips, you’ll elevate your air-fried mug cake with cookies from a simple dessert to an extraordinary treat that’s sure to impress with its perfect balance of flavor, texture, and indulgence.
