This week I was on a classtrip at the Baltic Sea! Pretty nice, except the weather. It was cold and it even rained from time to time. Even though, it was fun to spend this time with my classmates as it is our last trip before we are separated in new courses the next year. I will make a post with photos next week, I promise.
But today, I want to share something different with you. I love oreos. Not just eating them as they are, but also creations with them: cake, bark etc. I have already tried making oreo cookies on my own, but they came out too sweet and besides, they could not survive the hot weather some weeks ago. This is why I decided to make oreo muffins. They are one of my favourites and I must admit that their dough is one of the most delicious I have ever made :P. But you’d better concentrate on the baked muffins and not eat too much of the batter as there are raw eggs in it…
The recipe is quite simple and quick and all the oreo-lovers will love the result. If you have some cookies left, you should turn on your oven at once and start baking. :)
Oreo muffins:
(20 – 24 muffins)
10 oreo cookies
300 g (2 ½ cups) flour
2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
200 g (1 cup – 2 tbsp.) sugar
100 g (3 ½ oz) butter at room temperature
2 pck. vanilla sugar or 2 tsp. Vanilla extract
3 eggs, room temperature
160 ml (2/3 cup) milk
Put the oreos in a freezer bag and crumble them with a rolling pin. Set aside until needed. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Set aside. In a bigger bowl, combine the butter, sugar and vanilla. Cream until the muxture becomes lighter and fluffy. Add one egg at a time and stir until it is fully incorporated. Now add the milk and the dry ingredients by turns while stirring in between so the dough stays smooth. Finally add the shredded oreos. Stir just to combine.
Oil a muffin pan or put paper cups into it and fill about 2/3 of the molds with dough. Bake for about 20 minutes.
Enjoy with ice cream, heavy cream or whatever cream. Just enjoy!
