Oreo Cupcakes
Oreo Cupcakes combine classic chocolate cupcake batter with crushed Oreo cookies folded in for texture and flavor. They are baked until light and fluffy, topped with a creamy buttercream frosting also blended with crushed Oreos. The result is a rich, chocolatey cupcake with crunchy Oreo bits and a smooth, sweet frosting enhanced with vanilla and milk.
