Divine Red Velvet Oreo Cupcakes

Ingredients

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

2½ cups all-purpose flour

1 cup buttermilk, room temperature

2 large eggs, room temperature

2 tbs cocoa powder

1½ cups vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

7 Oreo Cookies, crushed in food processor

2-3 tsp red food coloring

1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

2 8 oz packages of cream cheese, room temperature

½ cup of butter, room temperature

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 cups powder sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 C) and line muffin pan with cupcake liners.

In a bowl on an electric mixer, beat together the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla on medium low.

Add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet mixture and beat on low until smooth and just combined.

Add MOST of the crushed Oreo cookies (set aside about 2 tbs to top of the cupcakes.) and stir on low until just incorporated.

Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake cups, filled about ¾ full.

Bake for 18-20 minutes. Do a toothpick test to make sure the cupcakes are cooked through. Cool completely before frosting.
