This recipe is always my most requested and most popular flavor. The base of the cupcake is vanilla cookies ‘n cream and it’s topped with a loaded cookies ‘n cream buttercream.

Instructions

1. Line a cupcake pan with liners- I used silver foil, and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mix, water, oil, and eggs until completely blended. Fold in the chopped Oreos.
3. Using a cookie or ice cream scoop, add even amounts of the batter to each liner.
4. Bake according to the package directions and let them cool completely.
5. To make the frosting, beat the butter until smooth. Add in half of the powdered sugar and mix. Add in the vanilla, cream, and rest of the powdered sugar beating until smooth. Pour in the Oreo crumbs and mix. If it’s too thick, add heavy cream, 1 tbsp at a time.
6. Place the frosting into a piping bag with a 6B piping tip. Be sure to fill it only 1/2 to 3/4 of the way. Pipe a generous swirl onto each cupcake and garnish with a mini Oreo.

Notes

**If you only want light frosting cut the recipe in half: 2 sticks of butter, 4 cups powdered sugar, 2-3 tbsp heavy cream, 1 tsp vanilla, and 1/3-1/2 c crushed Oreos.
