How to Make a Cake by Accident

[person0]

Step 1:  Be a person who enjoys Oreo's in your ice cream.

Step 2:  Observe that Oreo's in traditional cookies and creme ice cream are generally more chewy than crunchy.

Step 3:  Ponder if there is a way to add extra Oreo's into your cookies and creme in a way that will provide a similar experience.

Step 4:  Fill a cup with Oreo's and then pour in some milk to surround them so they will become soft.

Step 5:  Confirm Oreo's have softened with a spoon, then drink excess milk.

Step 6:  Compact Oreo's in the cup only to discover they absorbed more milk than anticipated, which can no longer be separated.

Step 7:  Place semi-liquid Oreo concoction in fridge to come back to it later.

Step 8:  (Later)  Remove cold Oreo concoction with intent to freeze in preparation to add to ice cream.

Step 9:  Decide to microwave Oreo/milk concoction to evaporate a small amount of water prior to freezing.

Step 10:  Remove cup from microwave and observe an unusual swelling at the top which has a cake-like texture.  Stir and repeat step 9.

Step 11:  Observe effects of step 10 increased, and consider it is unlikely that 1.5 minutes of total microwave time would have evaporated the water.

Step 12:  Take a bite . . . discover you have created a cake by accident.

Step 13:  Research this phenomenon online only to discover that others have also discovered this and call it Oreo Mug Cake.

Step 14:  Mix it into your ice cream as you intended from the beginning.

Step 15:  Indulge 😋

OK.  You lost me right there.  This is like having a deep fried twinkie.
