OREO Cupcakes

I have a little secret: I love OREO cookies. The cream is what gets me. And, to further that love, I have found the Most Creamy Cream-Filled OREO Cupcakes--and I can't get enough. They're so addictive.

Ingredients

  • For Cupcake Base:
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • For Icing:
  • ½ cup butter softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 to 3 Tbsp. milk
  • ½ cup crushed Oreos
  • For Filling:
  • ¼ cup butter softened
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 Tbsp. milk
  • Topping:
  • one whole Oreo per cupcake

Instructions

For Cupcakes:

  • Preheat oven to 350° and place paper baking cups into 24 regular-sized muffin cups.
  • In a medium bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream sugar, oil, and egg. 
  • Next, add vanilla extract.
  • On a low speed, alternate blending in dry mixture and milk.
  • Fill each muffin cup up about 2/3 full and bake for 20-25 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Cool thoroughly before filling.

For Filling:

  • Once cupcakes are thoroughly cooled, hollow out a small well into the center of each and place one spoonful of filling mixture (enough to reach the top of the cupcake).

For Frosting:

  • In a medium bowl, cream butter until it is soft and fluffy. 
  • Gradually blend in confectioners' sugar, then vanilla extract.
  • Blend in milk one tablespoon at a time until right consistency is reached. 
  • Hand mix in crushed Oreos but don't over mix. You want this to have a good 'cookies and cream' feel to it.

For Topping:

  • Add one whole Oreo to every cupcake.
