Oreo Cupcakes Super Recipe
Oreo cupcakes have a rich chocolate cupcake with Oreo cookie chunks and chocolate chips baked into the cake and then topped with a fluffy cream cheese frosting and covered with more Oreo cookie crumbles. Follow my tips below to make the best Oreo cupcake recipe.
For the cupcake recipe you will need: one vegetable oil, one sour cream, eggs,semi-sweet chocolate chips, and Oreos. To make the fluffy frosting you will need: cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and Cool Whip.
Rarely do I come across someone who doesn’t like Oreos, would you agree with me? In my pantry, I have a couple of shelves (okay more than a couple) that are for blogging ingredients. Inevitably, there’s at least a few bags of Oreos at any given time.
Recently, my husband was taking a break from his strict diet after the wedding and he definitely took down a package of Oreos in two days. He asked me if he could have some, and I said sure.

Then it came time for me to make these cupcakes and I was all, “what happened to my Oreos”? His response, “Oh, I owe you a bag”. Insert eye roll here. I can’t complain though because he is SO good, he hardly ever eats sweets. I am not sure how he lives with me.
His resistance is so strong that he didn’t even eat one of these Cookies and Cream Oreo Cupcakes even though he really wanted one. I have to say, even I was surprised by this.
These Oreo Cupcakes are a moist vanilla cupcake stuffed with Oreo cookies and topped with an Oreo buttercream frosting. Cookies and Cream never tasted so good!
If your New Years Resolution was to eat healthier, these Oreo Cupcakes will not help with that. I am pleased to introduce you to the very best Oreo cupcakes that are the perfect dessert for any get together or an extra treat for those that love Oreos! Oh, they are so good. What makes them extra good is the “frosting.” It is less like frosting and more like a fluffy cheesecake that tastes just like Oreos.
I don’t know about you, but as a kid Oreos was the one cookie that you could not leave the package out. If you did, it was very likely that I’d be covered in Oreo crumbs and the package would be empty. Who can resist though? Chocolate and cream made into a sandwich cookie! It’s like heaven in every bite.
Since we clearly have a cupcake obsession here, it only seemed right that we turned the epic cookie into a cupcake that everyone can enjoy. It also make it less likely that I’ll eat the entire batch of cupcakes compared to the cupcakes. There’s just something about cupcakes that makes me want to share and just stick to one. Although, I might have snuck two of these Oreo Cupcakes after they were done.
