Eggless Oreo Cupcakes - I was wanted to make these cakes, we are not big fans of Oreo biscuits but I always wanted to try desserts with oreo. I found this recipe in this blog (recipe source given below). One other ingredient which is used as widely as oreo is the Nutella. Hopefully, I'll try some cake recipes with that too one day. This recipe doesn't use eggs, instead makes use of yogurt. This is the first time I'm trying a cake recipe with yogurt, and yes the cakes turned out to be much softer and buttercream frosting is used for icing. This is the first time I'm using buttercream frosting on my cakes. I've reduced the amt of sugar and the number of cookies used to half the amt used as it was way much sweeter. Ok, to the recipe now.
What is required:
Flour - Use all-purpose flour or cake flour. I'm using pro-nature organic maida.
Oreo with vanilla cream.
Leavening agents:
Baking powder: I'm using Kitcheneez baking powder without aluminum.
Baking soda or meetha soda.
Home-made curd or store-bought one. If using homemade curd, strain the excess water. No need of using greek yogurt. The curd used must be thicker. I'm using hatsun curd.
Sweetener: Powdered white sugar is used for the cakes. Readymade castor sugar can also be used.. Icing sugar is used in the frosting. I'm using Harima icing sugar.
Oils and fats: Cold-pressed sunflower oil is used. Any neutrally flavoured oil can be used. Yellow Butter is used for the frosting
Essences: Vanilla essence is used.
Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container.
