A couple days ago Carola introduced me to the amazing blog Bakerella and I instantly fell in love with it. One of the most recent entries was about making Cookies & Cream cupcakes with Oreo cookies. The recipe seemed simple enough, so I though I'd give it a shot.
I got my Oreos and broke them into small pieces.
Then, I placed them in the baking cups.
I decided to make half a dozen cupcakes with a whole Oreo cookie within them.
In the end, the cookies didn't go up as Bakerella's did, they stayed at the bottom of the baking cup (maybe it was my Betty Crocker ready-made cake mix?), so there really wasn't a visible difference between the whole Oreo and the broken ones (which is a shame, Bakerella's broken Oreo cupcakes looked so pretty)
This time I actually wanted to try and make the frosting myself, since it was a special cookies & cream one, but unfortunately I didn't have shortening at hand so I had to settle with good ol' Betty Crocker's vanilla frosting.
I smashed the broken cookies I had left and sprinkled them over the vanilla frosting.
