These Oreo Stuffed Cupcakes are a delicious surprise treat with a full Oreo cookie baked into the center of each chocolate cupcake, topped with cookies and cream frosting.
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients listed on box: eggs, oil, water)
- 24 Oreo cookies
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 2–3 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6–8 Oreo cookies, crushed (for frosting)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package directions.
- Place one Oreo cookie at the bottom of each cupcake liner.
- Pour cake batter over the Oreo cookie until the liner is about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the cupcake comes out clean.
- Allow cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
- To make the frosting, beat the softened butter until smooth and creamy.
- Add powdered sugar one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Add vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of milk. Mix until fluffy. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Fold in crushed Oreos into the frosting.
- Frost the cooled cupcakes using a piping bag or spatula.

Notes
- Use double-stuffed Oreos for an extra creamy center.
- Make sure cupcakes are completely cooled before adding frosting.
