Oreo Muffins

In an effort to clear out my pantry, I’ve been making a lot of goodies using ingredients leftover from the holidays. Instead of going into the kitchen, snacking on an Oreo, and little by little demolishing the entire package, I found a recipe for Oreo Muffins. Muffins are a favorite for me for breakfast. I like that I can freeze them and grab one out of the freezer and it’s almost completely thawed by the time I get to work to enjoy it. These muffins are excellent with a cup of coffee and they’ll use the last of those Oreos tempting you in the kitchen.

Oreo Muffins

So, how’s it taste?

They aren’t the prettiest things to come out of my oven, but they are packed with Oreo flavor. Oreos are one of my favorite cookies to turn into a sweet treat. I baked mine for about a minute too long, so be sure you set your timer to the lowest time and check them often. Even though they were slightly overcooked, I really liked them. Cookies and cream flavor with a crunchy topping. I liked the tiny bursts of chocolate from the chips, too. The muffin is so good, you could even skip the topping. The topping is delicious, but makes the muffin messy as it’s a bit on the crumbly and greasy side.
