This was an experiment … I have made brownie cupcakes before and love the convenience of single servings, no cutting required … but I have never stuffed a Oreo in one.  I have seen many recipes recently with Oreos inside cupcakes, cookies and brownies, so I gave it a try.  I will do it again, but it will probably be an experiment again!

First of all, I must confess that I used a brownie mix.   You see my family prefers brownies from a mix over brownies from scratch.  So, I keep my family happy and my life simple!

I followed the directions on the box and filled cupcake papers with the brownie batter.  I got 13 cupcakes from a mix that made a 9″ x 13″ pan of brownies …

Then put the Oreos in the cupcake batter … and put them in the oven @ 350° for 25 minutes …

This is what happened … the Oreos that I laid on top of the batter, stayed … I stood 3 Oreos on end and 2 fell down …  next time I may do it differently … maybe pour a little batter in the bottom, place a Oreo on the batter and then cover the Oreo with more batter …

I made these cupcakes to take to a birthday lunch … they looked so plain … so I added a little dollop of icing …

They needed more … a few sprinkles “partied” them up … and I put them in individual cupcake boxes for everyone to take home …

These Brownie Oreo Cupcakes were very easy and tasted good.  Let me know if you try it this way or another … I always appreciate input!  Just leave a comment below ….
