I swear Oreo’s have to be one of the most versatile baking cookies in the world. In the fall/winter/spring I’m not that big into “No Bake” recipes however, I saw this recipe and we had some extra Philadelphia cream cheese and I needed a reason to go buy Oreo’s so this was the perfect fit.
The author of this is a woman after my own heart. She took the recipe that was posted on the Australian Philadelphia cream cheese site, simplified it and in my opinion made them more visually appealing. Now instead of crushing Oreo for a crust, you can just lay down one full Oreo – the trick as you will see and learn, is getting the Oreo Cream Cheese mixture to sit on the Oreo in a perfect cylinder. Probably the hardest part of the recipe.

So I found out that a few of my daughter’s friends have issues with gluten. I’m from the old school before gluten allergies were properly diagnosed, where we ate everything, smoked candy cigarettes and played cowboys and Indians, and boys and girls both had cap guns and sling shots.
As an adult it’s my responsibility to progress and with that comes learning about new things and having new experiences, hence the beginning of my serious journey into gluten free cupcakes.
I stumbled on this little recipe simply because visually hey looked fantastic and thought if those are gluten free, then my daughters friends are going to be in for a treat. The best part of this recipe is that you can make it gluten free or not.
The recipe is straight forward and what you see in the middle is a peanut butter cream that will make you want to spread it on everything!! This recipe is a little effort that looks like a lot of work. Those are my favorite kinds. Hit the Recipe link below and BAKE!!

I realize there is no shortage of Oreo cupcake recipes, event this site might have a dozen however…this is one of those recipes that look like a lot more work than they really are. There is nothing like people thinking you slaved over a hot stove for hours – it just might buy you 30 minutes of peace and quiet.
The secret here is Crescent roll dough. What you see that gives this dessert the cupcake like appearance is actually crescent roll dough placed in your muffin pan. But these are Mini’s, so that is a mini Oreo and these are bite-sized. This means you will have to make a lot. I lost six of them somewhere between my oven and the dining room table (my stomach and waistline found them).
You will be pleasantly surprised with the outcome; this joins the list of my favs.

There are some people who are partial to pie rather than cake. These people are deprived of that pie sensation as there really isn’t anything like a cup-pie, only cupcakes….until now. Not really, but sort of. In my search to find and make the ultimate Super Bowl cupcakes I stumble on these Applely, cinnamonny, sugary beauties and I just had to roll up my sleeves and go to town.
These smelled so delicious, two of them met their demise before getting frosted. The frosting is Vanilla butter cream, however, please feel free to top with the richest, most decadent vanilla ice cream your heart so desires. Hot apples and cold ice cream – bring on the snow and the fireplace. Life is Good!!

This cupcake is more about what you can do creatively then the recipe.
Once you see the picture everything else should fall in place, but for those who like a step by step I have still included the link to the recipe below.
At first glance the only thing that was questionable was how in the heck did they make the red thing that hangs down from the turkey’s neck. I believe that is called a “Wattle”. If you remember Allie McBeal then you will indeed remember he Wattle. Anyhow, this is made by any super meticulous person who wants to take a fruit roll up and cut and stick a wattle in the side of a Their Nutter butter bodied Turkey.
Good Luck with that.
For me, my wattle-less cupcakes look just perfect and ready for tomorrow’s Pre-Thanksgiving Day festivities. Right now my real turkey is ready to go in the oven and I’m ready to go in the tub. After fighting an old lady for the last bag of marshmallows, hurdling a shopping cart like OJ Simpson at an airport and dragging groceries in like I’m competing in the Kettle Bell lift of a strongman competition, I’m ready for bed….and the guests haven’t arrived yet.
I hope you are having just as much fun. Happy Thanksgiving.

Every now and then I venture onto a recipe that is just a little bit out of my comfort zone in regards to difficulty. This is a little different because it’s actually a Meringue. I’m used to things taking 25 minutes to bake but when I read the instructions I couldn’t believe it actually said 3 hours!!
I actually had to go to Google and type, “How long does it take to bake meringues!” Because I did not believe it. The result should be sort of dry and hard on the outside and soft on the inside. I did not quite make it. In fact, whatever I called myself making looked nothing like the picture and was barely edible.
You win some you lose some and I lost this one. At least I had some ice cream and berries and whip cream to snack on why I watched Scandal.

Let’s make this clear from the start, that is a mini Oreo you are looking at in the picture. The cupcake is not that big, which unfortunately was the main reason I was initially attracted to this recipe. That being said, once I read what exactly was going on, I wasn’t mad. I needed to make these, and I needed to make them quick.
The thing that seperates this oreo recipe from the dozen others is the frosting. I have never made frosting from Oreno cookies before. How crazy is that. If it tastes as good as it sounds, I thought, this would be amazing and it did, and it was. Cream cheese, butter sugar and 20 double stuff Oreos are used to make the frosting and that goes on top of a brownie cupcake! That frosting can be heaped on a piece of wood and it would be an acceptable dessert.
My only caution here, is have a glass of milk, a cup of coffee or some other beverage you like to eat with your cake, because this goes down thick and good. The challenge here is finding the mini oreos for the cute little Oreo on top. I wasn’t so lucky so I ended up putting half a full size. Either way it doesn’t last so it really isn’t that important.
