Cookies & Cream Cupcakes

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line standard muffin tins with paper liners; set aside.
2. Sift together cocoa powder, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl.
3. Add eggs, warm water, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla, and mix until smooth, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of bowl to assure batter is well mixed.
4. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full. Bake until tops spring back when touched, about 20 minutes, rotating pan once if needed. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.

For Frosting

1. Cream the butter until fluffy. Add the powdered sugar a cup at a time until thick and paste-like.
2. Add milk or cream a tablespoon at a time until light and creamy. Mix in Vanilla and Oreo crumbs. Use as filling or frosting as desired!
