If you like oreos you are going to love this recipe. It tastes exactly like oreos with a hint of mint-so yumm. I used a new chocolate cupcake recipe for the cake, it had a good flavor but it was crumbly. I am going to mess around with it a bit and will post the recipe later.
Mint Oreo Buttercream
Ingredients
-2 sticks (1 cup) butter, softened
-Powdered sugar to taste (I put this for every recipe, but I really think it's so much better if you just go 1/2 cup at a time until you get to the taste and consistency you like)
-15-20 Oreos
- 1/2 tsp. Vanilla extract
- 2 tsp. Peppermint extract
**If you don't like mint you can omit the peppermint extract and increase the vanilla extract to 1 tsp.
Preparation
-Mix the 2 sticks of butter on high until creamy.
-Gradually add the powdered sugar until it is to the right consistency
-Mix in vanilla and peppermint extract.
-Mix in crushed Oreos (if you want smoother frosting you can put the cookies in a food processor or for thicker frosting you can just crush them with your hands).
Happy Baking!!
