Oreo Funfetti Cupcakes
Yield: 24
Ingredients:
For cupcakes:
1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup of sprinkles
1 cup crushed Oreos
24 whole oreo cookies
For frosting:
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 1/2 tablespoons sugar
6 Oreo cookies, finely crushed in food processor
24 Oreos for the top of each cupcake
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line 2 (1/2 cup-12 capacity) muffin tins with cupcake papers. Place a whole oreo at the bottom of each cupcake.
- In a small bowl, combine the flours. Set aside.
- In a large bowl cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in
the eggs and vanilla. Add half of the flour mixture and half of the milk
and mix. Add in remaining flour and milk and mix until batter is
smooth.
- Add in sprinkles and crushed oreos and mix into batter. Carefully
spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling them about 3/4 full.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until tops are golden and a cake tester
inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean.
- Cool cupcakes before frosting.
- While cupcakes cool, make the frosting. While cupcakes are
cooling make the frosting. For the frosting, in the bowl of an electric
mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the heavy cream and
sugar. Beat on medium-high speed until the whipped cream holds stiff
peaks. Crush 6 oreo cookies in a food processor (if you don’t own one,
you should finely crush the oreos into small crumbs or else the cookies
will get stuck in the piping bag or piping tip). Gently fold in the
cookie crumbs with a spatula. Frost as desired (I used the Wilton 1M
tip). Then top each cupcake with an oreo cookie.
