Delicious Oreo Cupcakes
These delightful treats are a hit with kids and adults alike. Imagine a moist chocolate cupcake with a surprise Oreo at the bottom, topped with a creamy, Oreo-infused frosting.
Ingredients
- 12 chocolate cupcakes
- 24 Oreo cookies (12 for inside cupcakes, 12 for topping)
- Oreo Frosting:
- 3/4 cup butter, room temperature
- 2 1/4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup Oreo cookie crumbs (crushed in a food processor or with a rolling pin)
Instructions
Prepare the Cupcakes:
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners and lightly spray with cooking spray.
Prepare the chocolate cupcake batter (homemade or from a mix).
Place a whole Oreo cookie at the bottom of each liner.
Spoon the cupcake batter over the Oreo, filling each liner about 2/3 full.
Bake for 17-24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.
Make the Oreo Frosting:
Beat the butter with an electric mixer until it is light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, cream, and vanilla extract, mixing well until the frosting is smooth and fluffy.
Gently fold in the Oreo cookie crumbs until well combined.
Frost the Cupcakes:
Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, spread or pipe the Oreo frosting on top of each cupcake.
Optionally, add an Oreo cookie on top of each cupcake for extra flair.
