The Story:

What do you get when you combine Oreos, cookie dough and brownies? A very happy kid… or adult.  After seeing the brownie/cookie/Oreo bars all over Pinterest I thought there needs to be a cupcake with the same combo.  Is it a little crazy and over the top?  Yes–but your taste buds will thank me for the recipe.

  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 3-4 cups powdered sugar
  • 5-7 brownies crumbled

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pans with cupcake liners.

  8. 8. Use a knife to cut out small holes of each cupcake and fill with cookie dough filling. You can do this while the cupcakes are still warm.
  9. 9. Frosting: Beat butter for 2 minutes. Add cocoa, vanilla extract and milk. Scrape down the bowl as needed. Slowly add powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency. Add a little more milk if the frosting becomes too thick. Fold in brownie crumbles.
