Instructions
1
Follow the instructions on the box to make the cupcake batter. Break 10 Oreos into big pieces and mix them into the batter. Bake as directed on the box and let them cool down entirely once done.
2
In order to pipe the frosting smoothly, it is crucial to finely blitz 10 Oreos in a food processor for the frosting preparation. Make sure there are no Oreo chunks and set the resulting crumbs aside.
3
Smooth butter by beating it in a large mixing bowl at medium speed. Add powdered sugar one cup at a time, making sure to blend well after each addition. The frosting will still have a powdery texture.
4
After adding the vanilla and milk, mix on high speed until the frosting starts to form. Continue mixing until fully combined. Then, add the oreo crumbs and mix for a few more seconds to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed.
5
Pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes using a frosting piping bag and your preferred frosting tip, and place the remaining 24 oreos on top of each cupcake.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Crush Oreos Strategically 🍪Pulse Oreos in a food processor until you have a mix of fine crumbs and larger chunks—the variation creates better texture and prevents a gummy, paste-like consistency in your frosting and cake.
- Room Temperature Butter Prevents Lumps 🧈Always bring butter and milk to room temperature before mixing with powdered sugar to ensure a smooth, lump-free cream cheese frosting that pipes beautifully.
- Fold Oreos at the End 🎂Add crushed Oreos to your cake batter in the final 10 seconds of mixing to prevent over-mixing, which keeps the cookie pieces distinct and prevents the batter from turning grey.
- Chill Frosting Before Piping ❄️Refrigerate your cream cheese frosting for 15-20 minutes before piping to achieve crisp, defined swirls that won't deflate or look sloppy on the finished cupcakes.
- Reserve Whole Oreos for Garnish 🎁Save a few whole or halved Oreos to press into the frosting immediately after piping for an elegant presentation and guaranteed cookie flavor in every bite.
