These Chocolate Candy Cane Oreo Cupcakes are the perfect combination of cookies and Christmas! Let’s be honest, Oreos go with just about anything but adding the candy cane crunch is just what Santa wants for Christmas!
I am so lucky to be working with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints this Christmas season! They always have the most beautiful videos for this time of year to remind us all what it’s about. It’s not about how many fancy gifts we get, how well we can decorate our homes, outdoing the neighbors with our lighting displays or even the candy and cupcakes. It’s about taking more time love and cherish the people around us as Christ did while he was on the Earth.
Part of the challenge is that every day this month there is a new way we can #LightTheWorld . I was asked to talk about the 12th of December which is about teaching others. I decided to teach my cute little relatives down the street (my cousin’s kids) how to decorate cupcakes!
I usually just drop off a box full of treats, hang out for a few minutes and go on my way. But this time I surprised the kids by bringing a box full of decorating stuff and helped them to make their own cupcake creations. I would hold the bag and they would move the nozzle to make whatever sort of design they wanted!
Little Reuben was a champ!
He was very proud of his cupcake! But probably more excited to eat it…
Clementine started to eat her’s before I could even snap a photo!
Simon tried to eat the whole thing in one bite!
Phin’s turned out like something they would sell at the North Pole! So cute!
Their youngest sister was too little to decorate with us but I’m sure they got to taste the frosting…yum!
I am so lucky with live by my extended family. I have more than 60 first cousins on my mother’s side! Crazy, right? But it is the most fun! Family reunions are the event of the summer and we have so many different types of people who live around the world! We get together and hear stories about everyone’s adventures and time just flies by.
Today is the Worldwide Day of Service. What can you do to lighten someone’s burden today? It doesn’t have to be some grand gesture, it can simply be opening the door for something, dropping off a bag lunch to someone in need or spending time with a friend who may be lonely.
Or you can always make these Candy Cane Oreo Cupcakes to bring to someone 🙂
Candy Cane Oreo Cupcakes
Ingredients
- CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES:
- 20 Oreos
- 1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup oil or melted butter
- 1 C. milk
- 1/2 C. sour cream
- OREO CANDY CANE FROSTING:
- 4 candy canes
- Oreos leftover from above
- 3/4 C. butter softened
- 8 oz. cream cheese
- 3-4 C. powdered sugar
- milk if needed
Instructions
-
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pans with cupcake liners.
-
2. Twist Oreos to break apart and put the side with the most cream, cream-side up into each cupcake liner. (You'll put the batter on top of the Oreo later.)
-
3. Sift cake mix to remove any lumps and add eggs, oil, milk and sour cream. Stir until smooth and fill cupcake liners 3/4 full over the Oreo halves.
-
4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until an inserted knife comes out clean.
-
5. Let cool.
-
6. FROSTING: Finely crush candy canes (I used a blender) and finely crush the other half of the Oreos from the cake (the ones that didn't have as much cream on them). I used a sifter to shake the crushed candy canes and oreos so I only used the finest pieces. If you aren't going to use a piping bag, you don't need to do this.
-
7. Beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add powder sugar one cup at time until you get your desired consistency, add a little milk if it gets too thick. Fold in your finely crushed candy canes and Oreos.
-
8. Frost cooled cupcakes and top with extra Oreos and larger crushed candy canes!
I love posting these behind the scenes shots because you get to see that I don’t have some fancy studio to take all my photos, just a small little office and some poster board is all it takes!
Hello!
I am wondering- how many cupcakes does this make? I can’t wait to try them tomorrow, they look fantastic!
Thanks for sharing!

The cupcakes do look fantastic, and I hope they turn out delicious for you. Enjoy!
What size candy canes do you use? Small or large. I’m excited to try this recipe.
Wow it turns oreo so very familiar serve as cupcake decoration
These cupcakes were TO DIE FOR!!! I’m not really a peppermint fan per say but these cupcakes were scrumptious! Especially the frosting…. mmmmmmm… I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out amazing. One thing I was thrown off by was that the candy cane pieces I’d sprinkled on top started “melting” (from humidity or absorption of moisture from the frosting?). I was upset at first when I saw this but then everyone that ate them said they loved it that the candy cane pieces weren’t “rock hard”. THANK TOU SO MUCH for such an awesome recipe!!
Ps: just as an FYI to anone wondering how many cupcakes this recipe makes… I doubled the recipe and made 42 cupcakes (I still had extra batter and frosting left but wasn’t sure how much frosting I’d have so I stopped at 42 cupcakes)
Hey,
Just wondering are the eggs, milk, and oil/melted butter a part of the recipe, or are they the ingredients you used for the Devil’s Cake Mix. I want to try out this recipe right away, but without ruining the cupcakes!
Thank You,
Sukhmani
These cupcakes were to die for! They were so moist and the frosting was the perfect consistency. They made a little less than 24 cupcakes but I overfilled my cups a little. I stored them in the fridge overnight and took them out to thaw 2 hours before serving. They were a hit and still stayed so moist!
Even I had forgotten I put an Oreo at the bottom and was pleasantly surprised when I found it!
Is the oreo hard?

NATO’s expansion into the Eastern Mediterranean and the Black Sea was widely supported by Italy, the Soviet Union and Britain. In early 1941, Italian units liberated Rome.
Italy’s public-security officer Giuseppe Rossi fled to England in June 1941, where he worked in the British Foreign Office as a member of the British delegation to the French-Italian Peace Conference.
When his ties to Mussolini became known in the British, Rossi supported them and joined the office of the British ambassador to Rome F.R. Rennard.
Despite this, the British counter-intelligence service recruited Rossi as an agent.
Rossi and his Italian wife did not live with their family and many people did not know that the two were married
They are amazing! Everyone at my school loves them!
Children are flowers of life. We should not forbid them to do homework or eat only healthy foods. We forget that the child must learn through our own experience. For example, the use of educational sites https://writix.co.uk/nursing-assignment-help during the school period helps to create a true understanding of knowledge. Sweet is an example of an endorphin booster.

So what is the closest sibling to this watch in the Daytona luxe replica horloges lineup Well it appears to be the black dial kind-of-reverse-panda Daytona on an Oystefelx bracelet with a black ceramic bezel. What’s missing on that model is the metal bracelet open caseback the red accent on the bezel the exotic-style square markers and the stark white sub-registers these are silver.
This cake recipe is absolutely delightful!

Learn about ZENITH’s storied heritage how they secured their spot in the world of watchmaking and how they are shaping the ‘making of’ watchmaking history at large.
But that growth has put pressure on the market a demand for product that the watch industry which prizes itself Neurodivergent Movement on old-fashioned craftsmanship that can’t be rushed has failed to meet. Anyone with a passing knowledge of supply and demand knows that scarcity drives up prices. Last year in particular it was impossible to have a discussion about watches without discussing supply-chain shortages and stratospheric secondary-market prices.
These Candy Cane Oreo Cupcakes look amazing! What a fun idea to bake with family.
