Hi Bold Bakers!
We are stepping up our mug cake game this week with quick and easy single serving Microwave Cheesecakes. Yes, it is true and it is even easier than making the mug cakes. There is no mixer needed, they cook under 1 minute and there is a flavor for everyone.
The cheesecakes cook very differently to my other mug cakes. They are cream cheese based and delicate so they need a little more TLC when cooking. It is not difficult as long as you follow my cooking tips throughout the recipe. Watch the video and you will see what your cheesecake should look like and how you should manage your cooking intervals.
Top Mug Cake Tips:
- How long should I cook my Mug Cake or Meal? Check the wattage (power) on your microwave to determine your exact cook time. My microwave heats at 1200 watts so your mug recipes may take a little more or less time.
- Can you overcook a Mug Cake? Does your mug cake smell or taste like egg or is it rubbery? It shouldn’t be! This means you overcooked your mug recipe. Cook it for the time on each recipe, check on it and you can always cook it longer.
- Are there Egg Substitutes for a Mug Cake or Meal? YES! I have an egg substitute chart you can use to enjoy mug cakes egg free!

Servings: 3
Ingredients
- 4 ounces (115g) cream cheese,at room temperature
- 1 cup (8oz/ 225g) sour cream/yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 2 egg white , slightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon flour (prevents liquid from forming)
- 1/3 cup (21/5oz/ 75g) crushed oreo cookies ( extra for the base)
Instructions
In a bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, yogurt ( or sour cream) ,vanilla, sugar, egg whites and flour until light and fluffy. This recipe makes 3 cheesecakes.
In a microwavable mug, sprinkle a layer of Oreo cookie crumbs in the bottom of your mug to create your cheesecake base. My mug is around 6oz (1 cup)
To make 1 cheesecake: Mix ½ cup(4oz/115g) cheesecake base with ⅓ cup (21/2 oz/75g) Oreos
Pour in your cheesecake ontop
CAUTION : Each mug cake takes roughly 45 seconds-1 minute. Microwave until you see A bubble in the center, and then STOP cooking. This will take seonds, maybe 15 or more. Take it out and check it. Microwave for short intervals until you see the edge of the cheesecake firm but make sure the center is jiggly. If it is allowed to bubble and cook further, the mixture will "break" and you'll need to start over.
Make a note of the successful cooking time for your microwave. They will take around 45 seconds - 1 minute.
Take out of the microwave and let cool to room temperature and then refrigerate until fully chilled, about 2 hours. If any liquid has formed, carefully pour out. Top with some whipped cream and a some cookie crumbs.
