In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe mug, add flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Pour in milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until the batter becomes smooth and lump-free.
Crush two Oreo cookies and stir them into the batter.
Spoon about ½ teaspoon of the cheesecake mixture into the center and gently swirl. Add a little more on top.
Microwave on medium-high power for about 70 seconds.
Let the mug cake rest for about 2 minutes before eating.
Dust with cocoa powder and enjoy warm.
Add white chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
Use Golden Oreos for a vanilla cookies-and-cream version.
Swirl in Nutella or peanut butter for a richer flavor.
Microwave power varies. Cook 60–90 seconds depending on your microwave. The top should look set but the center should remain slightly soft.
Mug cakes are best eaten fresh and warm. If needed, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day and reheat for 10–15 seconds in the microwave.
