White Chocolate Oreo Cupcakes
So imagine this..
Vanilla cupcakes filled with pieces of Oreos topped with a dreamy rich white chocolate infused buttercream frosting..
I twitched one of my regular recipes and it worked out!! I knew I needed a batter that was strong enough to bake even though it was weighed down with Oreo pieces.. Oreo goes with almost anything, it really does!
Ingredients
- 200g flour
- 200g white sugar
- 1 cup sunflower oil
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup of broken pieces of Oreo (aprox 8 Oreos)
- 250g of butter at room temperature
- 1 & 1/4 cup of sifted icing sugar
- pinch of salt
- 150g of white chocolate (melted in the microwave, then cooled)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 175ºC and line your cupcake tray with your favourite liners.
- Sift your flour, baking powder and salt together and leave to the side.
- Cream your oil and sugar together, add your eggs 1 by 1 then your vanilla.
- Now add your dry ingredients until well incorporated but becareful not to overmix.
- Lastly add your pieces of Oreo. Mine baked for 25 minutes in total.
- When cooled frost them with your white chocolate frosting.
- To make your FROSTING cream the butter until light and fluffy,
- add your icing sugar and salt and your melted (cooled down to room temperature) chocolate and lastly your vanilla.
- Frost your cupcakes the way you like and top them off with half an Oreo cookie!
According to Wikipedia, Oreos was first developed and produced by the National Biscuit Company (today known as Nabisco) in 1912 at its Chelsea, Manhattan factory. Today, this same block of Ninth Avenue is known as “Oreo Way.” The name Oreo was first trademarked on March 14, 1912. It was launched as an imitation of the Hydrox cookie manufactured by Sunshine company, introduced in 1908.
So there´s some Oreo knowledge for you *smile*.
Until next time guys! Happy cupcake baking!
