Everyone loves Oreos and everyone will love these Oreo Cupcakes! They will satisfy that sweet craving.
Hello! It’s Amy again over from My Name Is Snickerdoodle! Lately I’ve been totally craving cupcakes. I’m sure it would be better for my cravings to lean towards fresh vegetables or healthy smoothies, but it’s just the way it is sometimes. It’s all about balance, right?
When I was pregnant with my first child, all I wanted was Oreo cookies. It didn’t happen until my third trimester, but I couldn’t get enough! I would call my husband on his way home from work and ask him to pick me up another package.
It’s now been 9 years and I still tend to crave Oreos so it just made sense to combine with them cupcakes! And holy cow does this Oreo frosting just rock! It would be equally as great on vanilla cupcakes, too!
