Oreo Cupcakes Recipe Recipe For Twice Recipe For Shrimp

OREO CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 24 muffin cups with baking cups.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
• In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and the butter until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla extract, then beat in the egg whites one at a time, making sure each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
• Working in 4 or 5 additions, alternately add the flour mixture and the milk to the sugar mixture. Keep the mixer on low speed while you do this. When just combined, stir in the crushed Oreos.
• Spoon batter evenly into muffin tins, filling each about 2/3 full.
• Bake for 15-18 minutes at 350°F, until a toothpick comes out clean (a few chocolate cookie crumbs are fine, but not batter).
• Cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
• Store in an airtight container if not serving the same day.
• Note: If you only have a 12-cup muffin tin, the batter will not suffer from sitting around for a few minutes while the first batch bakes. Just be sure to let the pan cool completely before filling it up again.
• Variation: To make plain vanilla cupcakes, simply omit the Oreos. You might end up with only about 18 cupcakes, but as long as you fill the tins about 2/3 full, the baking time will be the same.
• Quick Vanilla Buttercream Frosting:.
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and beat, with an electric mixer, until frosting is creamy, 3-5 minutes.
• Frost cupcakes with frosting using a butter knife or offset spatula. Add as much or as little frosting as desired. If making Oreo cupcakes, garnish with additional chunks of Oreo.

OREO®-FILLED CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
• Combine coffee and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Add cocoa powder and whisk until smooth. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Whisk flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
• Combine sour cream and eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat until combined. Slowly add coffee mixture; mix until just combined. Add flour mixture; beat until just combined. Fill the prepared muffin cups 1/2 full with batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 17 minutes. Cool in the tins for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• While the cupcakes are cooling, place 1/4 cup mini cookies in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until blended and crumbly. Set aside 2 tablespoons crumbs in a bowl for decorating the cupcakes.
• Meanwhile, cream butter and shortening in the bowl of a stand mixer until fluffy. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, mixing until well blended. Mix in cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Add up to 2 ounces more cream if necessary, and beat at high speed until frosting is fluffy. Mix in the remaining cookie crumbs on low speed or by hand. Transfer frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a Wilton® 1M tip.
• Make a hole in each cupcake by pressing a 1-inch cookie cutter into the center and pushing about 2/3 of the way down. Remove excess cake, fill the hole with frosting, and top with a mini cookie. Frost cupcake starting at the outside and gradually working inward to form a peak. Sprinkle with some of the reserved cookie crumbs and top with another mini cookie. Repeat to fill and frost remaining cupcakes.
