Oreo chocolate cupcakes for Halloween are everything you need for the scariest night of your life. They are moist, rich in chocolate and easy to serve. The best thing about them is, that you can decorate them in SO many ways. You can go for the least scary version if some kids will attend the party as well. If you are a brave lover of Halloween, grab a butane torch lighter and decorate the marshmallows.

Ingredients:

• 80 ml oil
• 50 ml melted butter
• 210 g regular white sugar
• 2 eggs room temp
• 1 egg white

• marshmallows for decoration

Buttercream

• 140 g butter room temp
• 250 g icing sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

These Oreo cupcakes for Halloween are extremely easy and simple to make. You can make them with kids, friends or alone in your kitchen. What I love about Halloween is that you can eat the most disgusting and scary-looking desserts. This recipe can also be a base cupcake recipe for any Halloween decoration. If you decide to upgrade the design (which is, let’s be honest, simple) send me a picture on Instagram!

My tricks for the most delicious cupcakes for Halloween:

Using paper cups – I think it’s the best way how to bake and move cupcakes around. It is not messy and it’s also hygienic.

Do not over-mix – over-mixing the batter ruined so many of my desserts. It just takes time to see when it’s time to put down the hand mixer and believe in your skills and knowledge. This time you just need to mix until the ingredients are fully combined. Which means mixing until the flour disappears.

Baking at 210°C, then 180°C – I like baking muffins at a higher temperature for a few minutes first, then lowering the temperature for the rest of the baking. The muffins will rise quickly and have a nice shape of a mushroom. Lowering the temperature will help them to bake on the inside so they don’t burn.

Using every second “muffin hole” – I don’t know if we can call them holes, but let’s call them holes. Using every second hole in the muffin tin helps to bring up the heat and make the muffins taller and nicer. More heat – taller muffin tops.

Using chocolate chips and chocolate chunks – I recommend using MORE chocolate in the recipe. There is nothing better than chocolate cupcakes with big chunks of chocolate.

How to make Oreo Chocolate Cupcakes For Halloween:

Cupcakes

Preheat the oven to 210°C. Prepare a muffin baking tray and paper cups.

In a bowl mix oil, melted butter, greek yoghurt and sugar. Mix on medium speed until creamy.

Add eggs, and an egg white and mix until eggs are fully combined. Add flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder and mix until the flour disappears. The batter should be thick.

Chop up the chocolate and add pieces of chocolate into the batter with a rubber spatula. Fold in.

Bake for 5 minutes, then decrease the temperature to 180°C. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean. Let the cupcakes cool completely.

Buttercream

In a bowl mix butter with icing sugar. Mix on high speed until the cream is well mixed and there are no visible pieces of sugar. Add vanilla extract and repeat the process.

Now decorate the cupcakes with buttercream, Oreo cookies, and marshmallows.
