Oreo Cupcakes

Today I am excited to share this new Oreo cupcake recipe with you, I had originally found this recipe on Pinterest  when I was looking at all types of Oreo cupcake recipes and decided to give it a shot. 
My family ended up really enjoying it and I have made it a couple times since originally trying it.  They enjoyed this new way of using Oreo’s and I am excited to try new Oreo cupcake recipes in the different flavors. 
If you don’t have time to put together the recipe as I have listed, you could easily use a white cake mix and just mix Oreo’s into the batter.  Use a Vanilla canned frosting a sprinkle Oreo’s on top. 

Making Oreo Cupcake Recipes

Ingredients

Cupcakes

  • 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups flour, plus 2 tbsp
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 2/3 cup sugar
  • 3 large egg whites, at room temperature
  • 1 package Oreo Cookies (about 45 cookies)
frosting

  • 6 tbsp softened butter
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Oreo crumbs
  • 2-4 tbsp milk

Directions

  • Preheat over to 350F.
  • Line 24 cupcake tins with paper liners.
  • Twist apart 24 Oreos.
  • Place the cookie with filling on it, filling side up, in the bottom of each cupcake pan.
  • Cut 12 of the filling-less cookies in half for garnish, and crush the others in a plastic bag with a rolling pin to make fine crumbs.
  • Reserve these crumbs to sprinkle on the frosting.
  • Cream the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the milk and vanilla.
  • Roughly chop the remaining Oreos and toss with 2 tbsp flour.
  • Sift the rest of the flour, baking powder, and salt together into the butter mixture.
  • Stir a few times, then mix in the sugar and beat with the mixer on low for about 30 seconds.
  • Add the egg whites.
  • Turn the speed up to medium and beat for two minutes.
  • Fold in the roughly chopped cookies
 
  •  Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans and bake for about 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of cupcakes comes out clean.
  • Cool cupcakes in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the frosting, beat the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer and add milk 1/2 tsp at a time until it has a smooth, spreadable consistency.
  • Add the Oreo crumbs on top.

    Hello! I found these on pinterest, and usually there are comments that it looks great, but no comments on the taste! So, I decided to make these since we had extra oreos on hand. These did not turn out good. We ended up throwing it all out. :o / I did not put the topping on them though, so this review is without the frosting.

  19. Thanks a lot for sharing this delicious recipe. Can’t wait to bake these cupcakes and share them with my family for Christmas :)

  20. Just stumbled across your blog and found these cupcakes. Pinning them now and definitely putting them on my short list to try soon – thanks for sharing!
