1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional)
1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box)
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
3 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
cupcake liners
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix packaged cake mix according
to directions (do not bake). Line cupcake tins with liner, place a
regular size Oreo cookie in the bottom of each liner.
2. Take 1/2 of remaining cookies and chop coarsely and add to
cake mix. Fill the cupcake tins. Bake for 15 minutes (or according
to box directions). While cupcakes are baking make the frosting.
3. Cream together butter and cream cheese. Add vanilla, then add
powdered sugar slowly until blended well.
4. Chop remaining regular-sized Oreos very fine (I put the cookies
in the food processor instead of trying to chop them up super fine
and it worked out really well). Add to frosting. After cupcakes have
cooled frost and decorate with Mini Oreos.
Not a fan of cream cheese icing so try this next time.
use 1/2 c. butter, 1/2 veg. shortening, 4 cups of icing sugar, 2 tsp vanilla ( I use clear vanilla
to keep the icing nice and white) and 2 tsp of milk.
