Time 25m

Yield 24 Cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 egg whites, room temperature
3/4 cup milk
1 1/4 cups crushed Oreo cookies (10 cookies)
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 24 muffin cups with baking cups.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and the butter until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla extract, then beat in the egg whites one at a time, making sure each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  • Working in 4 or 5 additions, alternately add the flour mixture and the milk to the sugar mixture. Keep the mixer on low speed while you do this. When just combined, stir in the crushed Oreos.
  • Spoon batter evenly into muffin tins, filling each about 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes at 350°F, until a toothpick comes out clean (a few chocolate cookie crumbs are fine, but not batter).
  • Cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
  • Store in an airtight container if not serving the same day.
  • Note: If you only have a 12-cup muffin tin, the batter will not suffer from sitting around for a few minutes while the first batch bakes. Just be sure to let the pan cool completely before filling it up again.
  • Variation: To make plain vanilla cupcakes, simply omit the Oreos. You might end up with only about 18 cupcakes, but as long as you fill the tins about 2/3 full, the baking time will be the same.
  • Quick Vanilla Buttercream Frosting:.
  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and beat, with an electric mixer, until frosting is creamy, 3-5 minutes.
  • Frost cupcakes with frosting using a butter knife or offset spatula. Add as much or as little frosting as desired. If making Oreo cupcakes, garnish with additional chunks of Oreo.

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 180C. Line a 12 hole bun tray with some nice bun cases.
  • Stir the hot water with the cocoa powder and mix until smooth, leave to cool.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, soda, and salt together in a mixing bowl.
  • In another bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Crack in the eggs one at a time and beat generously after each egg-y addition.
  • Add the sifted flour and its powdered friends. Then pour in the cocoa powder mix, beat together.
  • Spoon the mixture into your bun cases. Bake in you preheated oven for 15-18 minutes.
  • . Leave on the tray for 5 minutes of so (just so they can cool down so you can then handle them) and the place on a wire cooling rack. Leave until completely cool.
  • Meanwhile you can make the icing. Cream the butter and gradually add the sugar, it should be smooth, creamy and quite light. Add the extract and colouring, do this to taste, but the quantities I give are a guideline. Pipe this onto the cold cupcakes in a swirl. Pop into the fridge so the icing can harden up.
  • Whilst this is happening melt the chocolate. You can do this in a microwave or over boiling water.
  • Pour the chocolate in a deep bowl. Then take your cupcakes (which should have firmed in the fridge) and dip the top into the chocolate (if you find this idea a little precarious, then just spoon some melted chocolate over the top). Leave to set at room temperature, as putting chocolate in the fridge can make in dull.

Provided by AllieGeekPi

Categories     Desserts     Cakes     Cupcake Recipes     Chocolate

Time 1h40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup strong brewed coffee
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
¾ teaspoon salt
⅔ cup sour cream
2 large eggs
¼ cup mini chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo® Mini)
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup shortening
8 cups confectioners' sugar
6 fluid ounces heavy cream, or more as needed
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
48 mini chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo® Mini)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Combine coffee and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Add cocoa powder and whisk until smooth. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Combine sour cream and eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat until combined. Slowly add coffee mixture; mix until just combined. Add flour mixture; beat until just combined. Fill the prepared muffin cups 1/2 full with batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 17 minutes. Cool in the tins for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • While the cupcakes are cooling, place 1/4 cup mini cookies in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until blended and crumbly. Set aside 2 tablespoons crumbs in a bowl for decorating the cupcakes.
  • Meanwhile, cream butter and shortening in the bowl of a stand mixer until fluffy. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, mixing until well blended. Mix in cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Add up to 2 ounces more cream if necessary, and beat at high speed until frosting is fluffy. Mix in the remaining cookie crumbs on low speed or by hand. Transfer frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a Wilton® 1M tip.
  • Make a hole in each cupcake by pressing a 1-inch cookie cutter into the center and pushing about 2/3 of the way down. Remove excess cake, fill the hole with frosting, and top with a mini cookie. Frost cupcake starting at the outside and gradually working inward to form a peak. Sprinkle with some of the reserved cookie crumbs and top with another mini cookie. Repeat to fill and frost remaining cupcakes.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help your cupcakes bake more evenly and give them a lighter texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your cupcakes tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full: This will help prevent them from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes at the right temperature: The temperature in your oven can vary, so it's important to use an oven thermometer to make sure it's accurate.
  • Don't open the oven door while the cupcakes are baking: This can cause them to fall.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you're sure to bake delicious and impressive Aero cupcakes that will be a hit at your next party or gathering. Just remember to have fun and experiment with different flavors and decorations to create your own unique treats.
