Ingredients
Scale
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup Oreo cookies, crushed
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk until fully combined.
Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies and spoon the batter into the cupcake liners.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.
For the frosting, beat together butter and cream cheese until smooth, then mix in powdered sugar and crushed Oreo cookies.
Pipe the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes and dip into melted chocolate to coat.
Notes
Make sure the cupcakes are completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
