Indulge in the citrusy chocolatey goodness with our easy 'Orion's Orange Oreo Cupcakes' recipe! A delightfully tangy twist on a classic treat.
Take note
Be careful not to overmix the batter, as it can result in dense cupcakes. Also, be sure to let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting to avoid a melty mess!
Place a Oreo cookie in each cupcake liner as the crust. Make sure the Oreo cookies are placed flat-side down.
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and orange zest. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and orange juice. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Spoon the cupcake batter over the Oreo cookie crust, filling each liner about 2/3 full. Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the cupcake pan in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and butter together until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, orange zest, and orange juice, beating until smooth and fluffy. You can adjust the consistency with more powdered sugar or orange juice, if needed.
Once the cupcakes have cooled completely, frost them generously with the orange cream cheese frosting. Get creative with piping or use a spatula for a rustic look. Top with additional Oreo cookie crumbs or orange zest for extra flair!
