Instructions

Make the cupcakes:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.  Line 24 muffin tins with cupcake liners.  Place an Oreo in the bottom of each cup.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the cake mix, butter, water and eggs and mix on low speed for one minute.  Increase the speed to high and mix an additional minute.  Fill the prepared cups 2/3 full of the batter.
  3. Bake until a tester inserted comes out clean, about 20 minutes.  Let the cupcakes cool completely.
Make the filling:
  1. Beat the marshmallow creme, butter, cream, vanilla, and salt until smooth.  Add in the powdered sugar gradually, then increase the speed and beat for 1 minute.  Refrigerate the filling until needed.
Make the frosting:
  1. Beat the butter, cream, vanilla and salt in a mixer until smooth.  Gradually add the powdered sugar, then beat on high for 2 minutes.
  2. Place the Oreos in a food processor and process until they are fine crumbs.  Fold the crumbs into the frosting.
Assemble the cupcakes:
  1. Using the cone method, cut cone shape out of the top of the cupcake. Fill the centers with the marshmallow filling by either spooning it in or placing the filling in a piping bag and piping in the filling.  Replace the top of the cupcake. 
  2. Pipe the frosting on top of the cupcakes.  Top with a mini Oreo, if desired.
