Vanilla Oreo Cupcake

I finally got my mixer. Was thinking of getting a Kitchen Aid.. but decided that it would be too much. So finally settled on a cheap Sunbeam mixer.

This is my first bake for 2010.... Vanilla Oreo Cupcake... really awesome !! I used the basic vanilla cupcake recipe from bakingmum blog and added some oreo to the mix.

Ingredients:

195gm of cake flour

140gm of plain flour

150gm castor sugar

100 light brown sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

225 gm of salted butter ( or 2 sticks) - cut into 1 inch cube

4 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 tablespoon of vanilla extract

Chopped oreo - I removed the cream

Directions:

i) Preheat oven to 165 C ( 330 F)

ii) Combine flour, sugar and baking powder on low speed until mix well

iii) Add butter to mixture. Beat till mixture resemble coarse crumbs

iv) In another bowl, combine eggs, milk and vanilla. Whisk to mix well

v) With mixer at medium speed, add wet ingredients into flour mixture in 3 parts. Beat until all ingredients are incorporated but not over mixed. Add chopped oreo.

vii) Fill cupcake liner to 2/3 full

viii) Bake for 20-25 minutes or longer depend on how brown you want the cupcake to be.
