pearls and peacock's cookbook: chapter 1 (chocolate cupcakes with oreo buttercream)

Soooooooooooooo, someone thought it was a great idea to be Betty Crocker recently and make chocolate cupcakes with oreo buttercream after seeing a recipe on Life as a Lofthouse.


My Ingredients:

For the Chocolate Cupcakes: cocoa, sugar, flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and boiling water

For the Oreo Buttercream: butter, powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and Oreos.

Why this recipe? It seemed easy enough to follow plus we (B and I) love Oreos!

The hardest part about this recipe was crushing 16 Oreos. My little arms got a good workout in that day. I definitely need a food processor though and a mixer. I didn't realize until I had already started then I had to mix and cream everything by hand. Oh well, no complaints. I made 24 of them and there are only a few left. From what I hear, they were delicious. Woo hoo!


I would definitely recommend this recipe. Very easy!
