Instructions
For the Cupcakes!
Heat your oven to 180C/160 Fan/350F and line a cupcake/muffin tin with 12 cases or put 12 baking cups onto a flat tray!
Add an Oreo to the bottom of each cupcake case!
Beat the unsalted butter with the light brown soft sugar until fluffy.
Add the eggs, self-raising flour and cocoa powder with the butter/sugar mix until well combined.
Split the mixture between the cupcake cases evenly.
Bake in the oven for 18-22 minutes until baked through. Leave to cool fully on a cooling rack!
For the Buttercream!
Beat the unsalted butter for a couple of minutes to really loosen it.
Gradually add the icing sugar on a slow speed until it is combined then speed the mixer up and beat for 3-4 minutes until fluffy and smooth.
Make sure the Oreos are in a really fine crumb and add to the buttercream.
Beat well until smooth - add in one tablespoon of boiling water at a time mixing well, until you reach your desired consistency.
For the Decoration!
Using a 1M piping tip, or whatever piping tip you prefer (with no fine details because of the Oreo crumbs), pipe the buttercream onto the cupcakes!
Sprinkle on some oreo crumbs, and add on a whole Oreo!
Notes
I used the original Oreos, but any flavour ones work well!
These cupcakes will last 3 days at room temperature!
I used a 1M piping tip to decorate my cakes as they get the nice swirl!
I
use these beautiful baking cups
in my baking as well.
