Did you know that most Oreo cookies are vegan (some countries use beef renderings/ milk…eek)? When I found out they were safe in North America I went HOG WILD for them. Which led me to the invention of this cupcake, that literally has an Oreo cookie baked inside of it. These are easy to make, playing on a conventional chocolate cupcake, but with a sweet Oreo surprise inside, as well as a creamy, fluffy mint frosting on top.
For the cupcakes:
Whisk together wet ingredients and dry ingredients, in separate bowls. Add dry to wet in one large bowl, folding to combine.
Fill muffin cups (or a greased muffin pan) 1/2 full. Place an Oreo cookie on top, then continue filling the cup until it is about 3/4 filled (it is basically another Tablespoon of batter spread over the cookie). Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 15-20 minutes (or until the tops of the cupcakes are firm to the touch). Let cool.
For the frosting:
Beat margarine and powdered sugar together, adding milk only as needed (until desired fluffiness is reached). Add mint extract and sea salt, beating until combined. Once cupcakes are fully cooled, place the desired amount of frosting on top. Top with 1/2 of an Oreo for garnish (if desired). Enjoy!
