How to make Oreo Stuffed Cupcakes –
Begin by making your chocolate cake batter. Line muffin tins with cupcake liners. Add about 2 tablespoons of batter to each cupcake and top with a whole oreo cookie.
Top each cookie with a couple more tablespoons of batter and in the oven it goes!
Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the center when pressed with your finger springs back.
Can I use boxed cake mix instead of homemade –
- We love our Easy Chocolate Cake recipe and we think it truly elevates this cupcake but we get it if you need a short cut! We suggest a chocolate fudge moist cake mix but any will do.
How to make Oreo Buttercream Frosting –
Simply combine softened butter, confectioners sugar and a touch of cream (see recipe card below for entire recipe). Whip it until it’s light and fluffy and add crushed Oreo’s! Super simple but oh so good!
