Ingredients

Oreo cookies provide the base flavor and sweetness.
Milk softens the cookies and helps create a cake-like texture.
Baking powder ensures a light and fluffy result when baked.
Sweetened condensed milk can be added for extra richness if desired.
Whipped cream serves as an optional topping.
Chocolate syrup can be drizzled on top for added indulgence.
Powdered sugar may be used for a light finishing touch.
Directions
Place Oreo cookies in a blender or food processor and blend into a fine crumb.
Transfer the crumbs to a bowl and add milk gradually, mixing until a smooth batter forms. Stir in baking powder until evenly combined.
Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish or microwave-safe mug. Bake in a preheated oven until set, or microwave in short intervals until cooked through.
Allow to cool slightly before topping with whipped cream or chocolate syrup. Serve warm or at room temperature.
