Annie, those look amazing. I want one. Call me inspired.

Now you have me craving cupcakes at 8 in the morning! Must…navigate…away….

oh my word! those LOOK fabulous! thanks for sharing!

You always make the best looking desserts and sweet treats–these remind me of one of my favorite sweet treats, a DQ Oreo Blizzard. Yum!

My coworkers birthday is next week and I am definitely making these! Your photos are so great I want to eat my monitor :)

I made these for a party last Labor Day- HUGE hit! They are incredibly delicious, and with the Oreo hiding everywhere, it’s one pleasant surprise after another!

I am lovin the recipe, but I am really liking the pink cupcake wrappers.

Those look INCREDIBLE! I love Oreo’s! The pictures look absolutely gorgeous. YUM, I have to try these. :)

Jenn

These are beautiful! I love the idea of the cookie on the bottom as the crust!

You know what the unfrosted Oreo sides would be great for? Grinding up into cheesecake crusts.

Anyway, yum. I like Oreos in desserts much more like I like them plain.

What a beautiful cupcake! The half cookie on the bottom looks amazing when you cut it in half. I had to admit, oreo cupcakes down sound all that, until you see the picture, that is! They look positively scrumptious!!!

nice! You can never have too many oreo recipes

Yumm! Perfect timing too. I was looking for something to make for this weekend and these will be a huge hit.

Where did you get those cupcake liners? I love how bright they are and it looks like they stayed that vibrant pink even after baking!! :) I need some!

OMG those look amazing!! I will have to make these bad boys, stat.

Oh my, we would inhale those in one sitting around here.

That is such a great idea to use a half an oreo as the base! My mother-in-law makes a mini cheesecake that uses a Nilla Wafer as the base, also delcious! Can’t wait to put kids to work twistin’ oreos this summer:)

There is no such thing as too many cupcake recipes, especially when Oreos are involved! Yum!

I think I might have actually really and truly drooled a little when I saw the last photo! These look amazing. I think these will definitely be on the list for the next cupcake baking day!

Just finished eating one.

Those were yummy and sweet enough that one cupcake was all I needed. I still don’t know how you get your frosting to be thick. This is the second time I’ve tried one of the cream cheese frostings you’ve posted and although they were both good, they were too runny to decorate with. And I only used 1 tsp vanilla v. the 1 Tbsp called for. Next time, I’ll leave out the heavy cream and see if that helps at all….or maybe it’s because I used 1/2 and 1/2 instead of heavy cream…hmmmm I should read my labels more carefully.

These look seriously dreamy!!!! YUM!! I am definitely trying these!! Thanks for all your other great recipes. I tried your strawberry cheesecake this past weekend and it was a huge hit! :-)

yum yum ,,
I like your recipes ,,

beutiful work :)

this recipe looks amazing, and i can’t wait to make them!..the chocolate chip cookie dough cupcake recipe (turned cake, in my case) was amazing and i’m not sure if these can top it, but i’m willing to make that sacrifice and try them anyway :)..also, just recently realized that you are a physician!..i am a second-year medical student who is currently studying for my usmle step 1 exam, and baking is a HUGE stress reliever for me..i’m sure you can relate!..thanks for providing a little spark of delicious happiness in my otherwise study-filled days. :)

Oh gah, you are so wrong for posting this one! I’m almost eight months pregnant and you know I could easily eat at least a dozen before I even blinked an eye!

love the cookie on the bottom idea! def goign to try this recipe soon! thanks for sharing!

I think I may try these…and I never try your baking recipes. Not because they don’t look AMAZING every time…but they are too complex for my simple baking skills. :-)

Love the look of this one…THANK YOU!

It’s my 25th Birthday tomorrow and on saturday my friends and I are having a kids themed party, we all feel old what with all the ‘grown up’ decisions that we have to make these days lol so we decided to have some fun. I am definitely baking these along with all the other childhood favourites!

Keep up the amazing work! xx

Oh boy those look good! You are a star :)

Yum… I can imagine these being even more amazing with Mint Oreos!

I made these for Mother’s Day and they were incredible!!

I made this last night! I love the cupcake itself, but not my frosting. After an hour of brianracking as to why my frosting was soo runny, I realized I put way more butter into it than I should have. It tastes fine, so I guess that’s all that matters, but dangit! Thanks for the idea!

I think my favorite part is the bright pink liners with the black and white cupcakes….these look AMAZING, and I’m not even a cupcake fan.

Any chance you want to make these again on a slow birthday month? :oP

In my experience it has more to do with what type of liner you used than anything else. Some stick, some don’t.

Hi Annie-

I have a kinda dumb question, but do the cupcakes have to be refrigerated because of the cream cheese in the frosting?

Annie,

Yours look great as usual. As I mentioned, they’re definitely the cupcakes that get requested most often.

Hi Meghan,
I just used a pastry bag fitted with a plain round tip (it is not labeled with a sizing number).

Hey Annie, thinking about making these cupcakes as a 2 layer cake. Thoughts? Would there be enough batter? Would this be too sweet? Oreos are my nephew’s fave. thanks!

Love your site and recipe choices! I’ve made several of these cupcakes and desserts and all have been a hit with my fam.

I’ve been working on a churro cupcake, but haven’t made something spectacular just yet. I’d love to see you carry the torch and develop something to knock our socks off… Just a little food for thought! ;)

To be honest, I think it has everything to do with each individual cake recipe and also the liners you are using. That said, I’ve never had a problem with the cake pulling away from the liners and I make cupcakes from scratch all the time.

I also looked for ideas in your comments about what to do with runny frosting. I didn’t want to add more powdered sugar just yet and since it’s about 95 degrees outside and I don’t have central air I decided to put it in the freezer for a bit. (luckily I baked them the other day when it was cooler in the morning) Turned out that’s all it needed. 20 minutes later it was still a little soft but worked just fine using a small spatula. So in case anyone else has a problem with the frosting maybe this will help them too!
Oh, I almost forgot…these are the most AMAZING cupcakes I have EVER had!! Thanks for the recipe!!

I made these for my birthday last month and they were a total hit. They are chock full of oreos and an excellent balance for the chocolate-lover who doesn’t want a totally chocolate cake. So impressed with this recipe.

I made these cupcakes the other day and the response was overwhelmingly amazing. Everyone said they were like heaven in a cupcake! Definitely a new new top!

p.s. I love ALL your recipes! You’re the best!

I made these last night and was cursing the high heavens and considering baking a new batch of cupcakes using a different recipe at 1AM because the cupcake liners stuck so badly to the oreos in the bottom of the cup. However, cooler heads prevailed (not mine) and this morning I was delighted to discover that with adequate cooling time, the liners do indeed come off. So, let those puppies cool for at least 6 hours or so before you try to remove the cupcake liners. The cake is light with a nice crumb and not squishy moist. The icing is insane. Huge hit at the office. Will make these again. Thanks for the recipe!

Kristy, I think it’s probably something to do with the cake recipe and the type of liners you use. That being said, I’ve never had that problem with the liners and I make all kinds of cupcakes in all kinds of liners all the time. I’m not sure there is a clear answer.

how would i calculate how much of each ingredient i would use i wanted to make 12 instead of 24 cupcakes?

Oh god you’re killing me here. I have to stop browsing through your archives.

Yes, these are US measurements.

Annie,
these may be the BEST cupcakes I have ever made or eaten! I didn’t do the cream cheese icing though because these had to spend a couple hours out of the refrigerator at a graduation party. I just made a regular buttercream icing instead. I had SO many compliments on these and I directed everyone to your blog. I’m an avid follower and I’m afraid my husband has a foodie crush on you!
Thank you so much for your blog. Your recipes are amazing and easy to follow!

to anyone wondering if this recipe makes enough batter for an 8 inch layer cake, it does! i used the recipe as is to make a birthday cake for one of my friends, and the layers were plenty thick enough. i filled the layers with the oreo whipped cream filling from annie’s cookies ‘n cream cake and frosted it with the cream cheese frosting, and it was DELICIOUS! my only complaint was with the cream cheese frosting – it was super runny and would NOT stick to my cake. i only got it to work after much refrigeration (and frustration). the frosting was still yummy, but next time i will probably use a standard american buttercream or an italian meringue buttercream. thanks for another amazing recipe! :)

I made these this summer (albeit with a different frosting) and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved them. Thank you so much for the recipe.

Sure, I do that frequently.

Annie,

I made these last week for work and everybody loved them! My husband asked if I could make some kind of Nilla Bannana pudding cupcakes, (nilla pudding is his favorite dessert) I was thinking of using this recipe and just replacing the oreos with Nilla wafers, maybe some bannana extract in the cake and bannana pudding filling. I think that would work but I have no clue what kind of frosting to use, this cream cheese frosting or the white chocolate whipped cream from that chocolate layer cake recipe with the strawberries? What do you think? Meringue maybe?
I was thinking it would have to be light but also has to stand up to storage in the fridge overnight and still look pretty for “Cupcake Thursday” at work.
-Becca

Annie-

I would like to see what you come up with! I tried it today using your vanilla bean cupcakes and mixed in chunks of nilla wafers and banana to the batter, then filled them with banana creme pudding using the cone method. I messed up the white chocolate whipped creme frosting though, it all seperated so I added a stick of butter and whipped the living daylights out of it. Overall it was a good cupcake but not a knock your socks off cupcake. Can’t wait for your take on the idea!

-Becca

Hi, I tried making this kind of cupcakes. And it’s really good. I know some of you are already a pro in baking, i would kin’a ask some help, if that’s okay? Whenever I bake some cupcakes, after baking it…some of it will have a funny looking volcano cone. I use convection oven because I don’t have the gas oven. And that oven only have Celsius so I have to convert it. I don’t know whats really wrong. Help me! =c

Thank you so much ma’am.

Annie; I wanted to say thank you for sharing the recipes you use. I had a friends’ birthday this week and wanted to make something that was intricate enough for me to enjoy, but simple enough he’d enjoy as well.
I loved this cake idea (white w/ oreo pieces) and especially the idea of the oreo on the bottom… but I knew he’d not like the cream cheese frosting… so I took the whipped cream frosting from the other oreo cupcake recipe… delicious! This worked out so well, and I think I’m keeping the batter recipe and trying other add-ins… it is a delicious batter by itself. All the people who had them are asking for more.
A lot of blogs just do updates and pictures… with no recipes. So I really wanted to say thank you for being kind to offer the recipes you use and taking the time to type them out for us. It’s a lot of fun to make food for people, and even more fun to try new ideas and recipes. Thanks for allowing other people to enjoy your creative fun too.

I was looking up cupcake recipies and wondered onto you’re website and saw these delicious treats. I was really craving something sweet and in a ‘cupcake’ form since we didn’t have anything sweet around the house. Someone I know is at the store RIGHT NOW getting the ingredients to make it. Thanks so much for sharing this.

Annie, I’ve just recently started viewing your blog after a friend referred me here for fantastic cupcake recipes. I have to say, I’ve made these twice now and they are just amazing! Your presentation of them in the hot pink cupcakes is just beautiful, too. Thanks for a great recipe!

Just made these today, and oh my goodness were they delicious!! Thanks for sharing :)

I’d love to try these but only want to make 12. Would you recommend 1 or 2 egg whites?

oh my annie!! Great job on these cupcakes! Good thing I found your website, my son asked me for some oreo cupcakes for his birthday. These would be perfect! Should I half this recipe if I wanted to make them into mini cupcakes and use the mini oreos…any ideas?

I’m not familiar with substituting soy milk in baking. Try Googling to find out more.

It is the type of liners you buy. These particular ones are grease-proof, so they look nice even after baking.

Well, I made these twice! I overbaked them the first time and the second time forgot two of the egg whites! Yikes! They are supposed to be dense, right? or should they be airy? Also, my icing did not come out well at all! I did use 1/3 less fat, maybe that was why?

You may have it right on overmixing the batter and as for the icing I meant to say I used 1/3 less fat cream cheese -it didn’t have the right texture or taste…I ended up adding more butter and powdered sugar and calling it a day! I know these would be awesome if I could just get it right. The oreo bottoms sort of had a burnt taste to them too.

This recipe has been on my “to make” list and I finally made them today. My husband love’s Oreo cookies and he loved it! They were so good!

Hi Annie! I was wondering how you get those chocolate crumbs sprinkled in neat circles on the frosting. I’m making these for Halloween, and I can’t wait to surprise my friends using my great new baking weapon (your blog)! Thanks so much for sharing!

Oooh I made these this weekend and they were amazing! Everyone has said how great they are and it’s thanks to your wonderful recipe! Can I ask, why just egg whites and not the whole eggs? Also what icing tip do you use to get your cupcakes looking like that?

Thanks for a fantastic recipe!!

Does anyone know what I did wrong? I made this recipe twice in a row, and it came out badly both times (and I wasted a whole box of Oreos). The first time, the edges of the cake were starting to get golden brown, so I took them out because I didn’t want them to burn on the outside. Turns out, the center of the cupcakes were still liquid. I’m pretty sure I checked with a toothpick, but whatever. Then they turned into little hard hockey pucks almost immediately after cooling. I made the recipe again…but this time turned down the heat to 325 and covered the cupcakes loosely with foil just before they started to brown. They seemed decent, but when I took them out, they sunk in the center and became hockey pucks again. I did cut this recipe in half (but highly down that I incorrectly calculated twice in a row). I later ran out and bought white cake mix and made this recipe: http://www.howtoeatacupcake.net/2007/09/oreo-cookies-and-cream-cupcakes.html
They baked up with nice domes, but still sunk and shrunk a bit once cooled. They tasted fine and were presentable, but they looked much better in the oven.
I make cupcakes all the time…I don’t know what’s going on with these dang Oreos! Is it because of the lumpy, cookie-filled batter? I’m afraid to try again…Oreos aren’t cheap! Any suggestions/thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Absolutely to die for! My 10-year-old daughter took 2nd place in a Girl Scout bake-off with these cupcakes. Everyone said these were the best-tasting cupcakes of all; first place was awarded to a cupcake for presentation/decorating reasons only. They were cute – they looked like spaghetti and meatballs, but tasters unanimously agreed they didn’t taste good at all! We made two batches of these Oreo Cupcakes – one batch with cream cheese frosting and one with buttercream frosting – both with finely crushed up Oreos throughout. We preferred the ones with buttercream (more reminiscient of the filling in an Oreo) so that’s what she submitted in the bake-off. Definitely a recipe you should try! YUMMMYYYY

OMG! i just baked this recipe this afternoon for my a visit for my friend in her house tomorrow, the cupcake turned out fantastic! i love the cake part since its soft and creamy in taste! the recipe is marvelous!!! thank you sooo much for posting! ill post the recipe in my tumblr account if you dont mind.. :) thank you a lot again!

Your cupcake recipe is AMAZING. I found it here http://theadventuresofroryandjess.blogspot.com/2011/01/cookies-and-cream-cupcakes.html earlier this week and I knew they would be a “day off school” lifesaver!! Definitely saving this recipe to make them again and again!

Hi Annie,

I’m going to be making your cookies and cream cupcakes today and wanted to know if the flour should measured and then sifted first? Or, sifted and then measured? Thanks!

I just made these today as a Valentine’s Day activity for myself, planning on filling up my loneliness with Oreo cupcake. It worked quite well :D These are amazing, they look gorgeous and they taste awesome. Thank you so much for the fantastic recipe!

made these last weekend and everyone went NUTS over them! thanks for such a great recipe! for some reason, my icing seemed very thin when i was piping. it did keep its shape, but i had to make sure everyone stored them in the fridge before eating them. no complaints though!

Made these and couldn’t figure out why they were so high density…did some research…you are suppose to use 1 Tbsp of baking powder….not 1 tsp.

Wow these cupcakes were the hit of my son’s birthday party. Thank you for such an amazing recipe.

The gluten free version was sooo good. My daughter had a smile on her face all night…Thank you so much!

Great recipes! Quick question, how do you get your cookie to not stick to the paper?

I have made these cupcakes twice now. And both times, instead of the cupcakes being soft and moist, they’ve been sort of hard – especially the tops. It’s almost like I’m not mixing the sugar in all the way, and it’s almost like the top of creme brulee (if that makes any sense). I think I probably over-baked them.. twice.., but I was just curious as to what the consistency of these cupcakes should be. I’ve made the chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes you posted and those turned out great! So I can’t figure out what I keep doing wrong with this recipe. I know you obviously can’t tell me what I’m doing wrong since you weren’t there, but I just wanted to know if you had any advice.. Thanks!

I just had to add my compliments for this recipe. I made these to take to a co worker who loves cupcakes. I was worried because they felt really heavy, but they were very good. I thought the frosting tasted overly sweet on it’s own but it was perfect on the cupcakes. I also used the mini oreos as decorations. I used white liners and everyone thought the bottom was burnt until they realized that it was a cookie! I was wondering if those folks who had trouble with the cookie sticking to the liner may have put the cream side down instead of up? I could see that causing it to stick….In any case, thanks for your great blog. I can’t wait to try some of your other cupcakes!

hi Annie im 12 years old and love to bake i was wondering if there was any way i could take out the oreos for one guest that doesn’t like choclate but for the rest put them im thanks
i love the recipe!!!! :)

i am very excited to give this recipe a try! however, i normally use silicone cups to bake my cupcakes. so in your opinion, if i am altering the recipe just by not placing the cookie at the bottom, do you think it will turn out just fine? thanks :]

Wow! These were delicious! Everybody loved them;thanks so much for the great recipe!

This recipe is brill!

I was going to make these for work however the bottom oreo stuck to the liner too much that I ended up throwing them away. I do see in previous comments that the type of liner does effect this. I bake often and unfortunatly I did not have any of the liners I prefer left in the house and settled for other ones and it just did not work :(:( I stubbled upon your page last night looking for cupcake recipes and even though this one didnt turn out for me (my fault with the stupid cheap liners) I will most try many more recipes :):)

Thanks for this! Was looking to see if anyone had successfully made it into a cake. Will give it a shot!

Erin, when I eat these the same day the liner sticks but once they are totally cooled down, the liner peels off no problem. If you try them again, keep that in mind. I’d cry if I had to throw out a whole batch of cupcakes!

What a yummy treat!I baked these this morning and my family love them..so delicious…only problem is that the edges are quite crusty almost hard.. :(

This was actually the first cream cheese frosting recipe I’ve used that came out perfect. Thanks Annie!

What type of liners do you use? They seem to come out perfect with out looking greasy after… cupcakes look delish!

Do you have a suggestion for making this recipe variation with a chocolate batter/cake also?

Thank you

I will have to try adding a yolk. Thank you so much for your reply. They are still delicious, even with a little bit of paper stuck to them haha. By far my favorite!! Thanks for the recipe ;)

I may be wrong but I think using low-fat cream cheese can make quite a big difference. Full fat seems to just stay creamy the more you beat it, but low-fat cream cheese gets runnier and runnier the more you beat it. That’s the experience I’ve had, anyway. I have used medium fat cream cheese and that has worked well as long as it isn’t overbeaten.

I just tried out this recipe last night, and it was so good! But i’m wondering what kind of butter you use? I used land o lakes in this, but I wondered if plugra or kerrygold would impact the moistness/richness?

Making the cupcakes right now! If they taste as yummy as the batter does, then I can’t wait to taste the finished product!

I absolutely fell in love with these cupcakes the moment i saw them. And my neice’s first birthday is coming up and I want to make these. I love everything about it, but i’m kinda if-y about the cream cheese frosting. Are you sure it goes perfectly with a cookies and cream batter ? Or should I just make a regular vanilla fluffy frosting ?

Wow, lots of posts for these yummy looking cupcakes. I’ve been having fun making different cupcakes each week at our little market where my husband and I are vendors. I’ve been quite successful and these Oreo ones look like they might sell pretty quick. Thanks for all you do with this blog. It’s incredible!

So.. honestly, I have to admit I am not really a huge cupcake fan… not much of any kind-of-cake fan at all… but i do love desserts… i especially LOVE oreo cookies… so i thought why not give this a try because i love almost anything with oreos. I have to say these Oreo Cupcakes were AMAZING… SO DELICIOUS and so moist… typically cupcakes are more dry hence why i don’t really care for them… but these OMG! These were to die for. I just made them for my mom and brother since they just came home from a long trip & for my uncle who just got out of surgery….and i KNOW i will be making these again, probably very soon too because I can’t seem to stop eating them!!

GREAT RECIPE… LOVED the chopped oreos inside the cupcakes.. probably my favorite part of the entire recipe!! Thank you!!

Made these cupcakes today… SO GOOD! i found the chunks in the cupcakes to be a little bigger than i liked, so i think next time i will mash them up in a baggy. My sons 2nd birthday is coming up and i am making the cake from scratch and attempting fondant(god help me) I was thinking of making this into a layered caked and with the frosting layering the cookie halves in between instead of putting them on the bottom like in the cupcakes. Have you or anyone else tried this? Thanks for sharing your great recipes!!

Hi, I’m really hoping that I can make these cupcakes this weekend but all your measurements are in cups, whilst I’m in Britain and I’m not sure if converting it will be accurate? Is there an alternative for grams?

I’m making these as a welcome home surprise for my mom today. She’s on her way back from a very long two weeks that included her oldest sister’s funeral. I will link to this page in my blog post about it, which will post tomorrow. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
Ivy

Annie~ just wanted to say that I LOVE these! I’ve made them a few times with a few small changes of my own, but they are awesome and I love seeing peoples face when they hit the oreo on the bottom! Just curious, have you seen the new cupcake pen? it’s a must have for every baker! These are the second cupcakes I’ve made and used it! (really I just needed an exscuse to use me new tool!) Keep up the yummy work!!!

Oh and I just wanted to add I know for a fact that I precisely measured all the ingredients correctly. Thanks!

I’ve made these a few times now at our little market and people are now requesting them. I bake them in our convection oven (reducing the heat down 25° and they bake perfectly (rotating them as you suggest). Sometimes the icing won’t hold up (as in shape) but its still delicious. I use a mini Oreo on the top which is really cute. Thanks so much again for this incredible recipe.

These were amazing and sooo easy to make!! A+++

Just made these tonight, so good and pretty! So excited to share them with friends and family at my husband’s graduation party tomorrow. He just got his MBA!

I would agree to not bake until brown, I think that the browner ones get a little tough on top. Other than that, they’re fantastic, and oh so sweet!

UPDATE: Everyone at work LOVED these. I’m a little sad I made them because I’m not sure how to top them. A co-worker offered to pay me to make her a batch for her husband! Both times they’ve turned out great.

I made these a few days ago and they are amazing! My husband and I have been fighting over who is eating more to make sure we get an equal share. I’m usually terrible with making cake from scratch but these came out great, I was nervous that my batter was to thick. I used Wilton’s butter cream recipe instead of the cream cheese you suggested and it went well. Thank you for the recipe!

I have made these 3 times they are the most delicious things. Ever.

I don’t even like oreos (I know, unamerican…) but these cupcakes were AMAZING! I made them for my boyfriend because he loves cookies n’ cream, and I found myself eating them before he even got here… needless to say they were amazing!

These cupcakes are absolutely delicious!! They have been a hit with everyone, including myself. They were perfectly Oreo tasting without being overwhelming. Loved it!

Cream cheese. You are using it to make frosting.

Very Very Heavy cupcakes! But they are delicious!

Please see the FAQ page regarding food storage.

Make sure the cream cheese is cold when you beat it in. I’ve also found that clear (imitation) vanilla extract helps keep the frosting stiffer, for whatever reason. You can always chill it in the fridge to help it set up a bit before using.

Cookies and Cream Cupcakes… soooo totally making these!! It’s the ultimate combo!! YUM-O!!!

These sound delicious! I’ll be making them soon.

I had that problem the first time I made them too. I now use cooking spray for baking in the liners. Works like a charm.

I made these for my daughter’s 4th birthday and they turned out perfect! All of the adults and kids loved them! I added purple coloring to the cream cheese icing and then sprinkled the tops with oreo crumbs. Definitely will make these again!

I just made these cupcakes a cpl hrs ago. Not even kidding, these were the BEST. CUPCAKES. EVER. I shared with my roommates and I think they liked them more than me! LOL Thanks for posting this! I’m sharing it with everyone!

I just finished these cupcakes at an orphanage in Honduras, and the kids loved them! Well, they love anything sweet but these were an especial hit. The humidity “melts” the Oreos into a cardboard-ish consistency and with frosting it turned the Oreos into a black pond within 1 1/2 hours. Next time I’ll just stick with icing and fresh cookie crumbles!

Yeah I had the same problem. They were kind of chewy…I think it’s because they are made with egg whites.

Are these cupcakes designed to be a VERY dense cupcake? For whatever reason mine were extremely dense. I followed every recipe direction perfectly. What could have made them this way or are they supposed to be this way?

just made cupcakes – couple fyi…dont over chop the oreo’s leave very chucky and next time I will put alittle batter then the oreo cookie mine stuck too the cupcake liner but I would make again very moist and good.

Unfortunately it’s not really something you can know before you bake the batter. The point is just to mix as little as possible while still getting the ingredients incorporated. Hope that helps!

Hi Annie, I love reading your website. I have a few questions that i’m stuck with. Am i able to use this recipe to make a cake instead of cupcakes? And is it possible for me to frost and fill the cake with the frosting?

I made these for a birthday party, and after my first bite of the “tester,” I had to wake my mother up (it was 1:30 am and she lives next door) to try it. I consider these to be life altering cupcakes.

I JUST made these cupcakes… which sadly turned out more like muffins. Definitely dense. Guess I overmixed somewhere. Probably baked a bit too long also, but the toothpick kept coming out with stuff on it, so I kept adding a minute til it didn’t. I probably should have undercooked them just slightly. My mother suggested that next time I just buy a cake mix and add the oreo stuff… Oreo stuck to the bottom of the wrapper. If you’re using paper wrappers, I recommend maybe lightly spraying them with a non stick spray. They do taste good though. Also, WAAAAY too much frosting was created in the making of these cupcakes. I guess I probably would have enough leftover to decorate a cake… maybe tomorrows project. :)

Please see the FAQ page.
