Oreo Cupcakes

Today's adventure was Oreo Cupcakes. I wasn't sure how they'd turn out, so I only made half a batch with Oreos and the other half are just white cupcakes. I followed a standard vanilla cupcake recipe and then just added Oreos (about 10 for the half batch). I also frosted all of the cupcakes in an Oreo buttercream frosting. 

Recipes:

Cupcakes:

-2 1/4 c. flour

-1 1/3 c. sugar

- 3 tsp baking powder

-1/2 c. butter (1 stick) -- room temp
-1 c. milk 

-1(ish) tsp vanilla extract

-2 large eggs

-20ish crushed Oreos 

I mixed the dry ingredients together. Then added the butter, milk, and vanilla and beat it together. I added the eggs and beat until it was all well blended. Mix in the crushed Oreos.
Bake for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees. 

Frosting:

1 c. butter

2 1/4 c. powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs milk

5 crushed Oreos

Beat the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla together. I gradually added milk, until I reached my desired consistency. Then, I mixed in the crushed Oreos!

Getting Started...

So this is my first ever blog. My intentions are to post about the things I'm baking. I'm still pretty new to baking but everything's been decently tasty so far.
Oh yeah, I'll probably occasionally post something I've cooked for dinner, but it probably won't happen often.
