They are probably the best Oreo cakes I have ever tried. A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor. So, in this recipe there is Oreo's in the cake, in the frosting, and at the bottom is a Oreo surprise. That's right, you put a whole Oreo at the bottom of the cake. The cookie stays firm, which makes it a little interesting to eat against the soft cake, but it actually gave a really yummy crunch. Overall this is an amazing cake. Super full of flavor and so fun!! Enjoy :)
Estimated Cooking Time: About 25 to 30 minutes
Ingredients
1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size
1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional)
1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box)
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
3 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
cupcake liners
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix packaged cake mix according to directions (do not bake). Line cupcake tins with liner, place a regular size Oreo cookie in the bottom of each liner. Take 1/2 of remaining cookies and chop coarsely and add to cake mix. Fill the cupcake tins. Bake for 15 minutes (or according to box directions). While cupcakes are baking make the frosting.
Cream together butter and cream cheese. Add vanilla, then add powdered sugar slowly until blended well. Chop remaining regular-sized Oreos very fine (I put the cookies in the food processor instead of trying to chop them up super fine and it worked out really well). Add to frosting. After cupcakes have cooled frost and decorate with Mini Oreos.

Trust me, I make cream cheese frosting all the time. It works wonders
Mascarpone might work, but its also considerably pricier than cream-cheese (at my grocery store at least) so its one thing to consider.
Hope it helps :)
I made some yesterday a.m. for desert as some friends (6) that were arriving for supper and I wanted to be well clear from the kitchen before my wife started on that. After the cakes had cooled, I topped half with a cream cheese mix and the other half with butter frosting, and just before we started eating I arranged 5 of each on dinner plate but first cutting a cross through the bottom of the paper case and then putting all the cheese topped ones on the same plate adding two tea spoons of Baccardi to the plate, and the same with the frosting ones but this time I used Brandy.
Its a very good job I had made 12 of each as seconds where demanded! and have just now been asked to make some more, for one of the friends from last night, for next week but it looks like it might be for 26 !!!! ( I suppose I had better make 50!! or get my wife to make them!)...
Love It!
