Cupcake, chocolate, buttercream, Oreos – and it’s all dairy, egg and nut free – what’s not to love?!
Everyone deserves some celebratory cake so as J passed the first step of the milk challenge, I made him this fab dairy free cupcake recipe. They look so super cute, are a great for a party or gift and taste pretty delicious too.
(Oreos are *May contain milk*. Now J is eating malted milk we have decided to let him have ‘may contains’)
The boys loved them – they appeal to their American side! – and I took some to a friend’s house and was greeted with lots of ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’. All you need is a packet of Oreos, a chocolate cake and buttercream recipe and some cupcake cases.
Oreo dairy free cupcake recipe
Ingredients (makes 8)
100g golden syrup
100g soft brown sugar
100g dairy free spread
140ml dairy free milk
1 serving egg replacer (or 1 egg)
150g plain flour
75g cocoa
1 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
16 Oreos
Buttercream:
80g dairy free spread
1tbsp non-dairy milk
1tsp vanilla essence
120g icing sugar
Method
Melt the dairy free spread, golden syrup and brown sugar together gently in a saucepan. Take off the heat and add the milk and egg replacer. In a separate bowl sieve the flour, cocoa and bicarbonate of soda. Mix in the wet ingredients.
Place cupcake cases in a cupcake or muffin tray. Put an Oreo in the bottom of each. Top the Oreos with the cake mixture. Bake in the oven on 180c for 15-20mins until a skewer comes out clear.
Leave to cool completely and then peel the cupcake cases off. Cut off the tops of the cupcakes, if needed, to create a flat base.
Make the buttercream by blending together the dairy free spread, milk and vanilla. Then slowly mix in the sieved icing sugar. Join two cupcakes together on the non-Oreo side with a heaped teaspoon of buttercream. Press together and leave them in the fridge to firm. Then enjoy!

Hope he likes them. Let me know how you get on.
Ooh they look lovely and easy to make!!
They look great – and now I’m wondering what other biscuits I could use on the bottom of a cup cake. Thanks for the inspiration #sharethjejoy
Wow I never would have thought of doing that – and brilliant that they are great for people with allergies too. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe over at #sharethjoy this week – hope you’re well lovely x
Hello, they look AH-MAZING! Wow! Thanks for linking up to #tastytuesdays
Oh wow! They look fabulous! #tastytuesdays
Husband is a big Oreo fan, so will get him to make these for us as I know he’ll be highly motivated 🙂
These look so yummy, Emma! I had no idea Oreo biscuits were egg-free. I wish they were wheat-free, too! Jumpy would love them.
What a fantastic idea – I am going to make these for my son if the oreos are soya free too, I need to check. Very creative and fun.
These look fabulous!!!! What a wonderful idea. There are some gluten-free oreo type biscuits out there so I might have to have a go at making something like this for my two. They would go down a storm!
My friend made them for a kid’s birthday party at the weekend and they all loved them – had no idea they were ‘free from’!
These are a brilliant idea – They would go down super quickly with my children! Thanks for joining in with #Bakeoftheweek
Yeah the kids seem to love them.
Oh wow, I had no idea Oreos were dairy free – pinning this one to make for my dairy free husband!
Thank you for linking up at #FunFoodFriday!
No, I didn’t either! Hope your husband enjoys them x
Oh wow! These are going on J’s birthday party food list! They look amazing and are so simple and even better I didn’t realise that Oreos were egg and milk free! Thanks ? Which egg replacer do you use? I tried one once and wasn’t keen.
I use Orgran but most the time I just use 60g apple sauce (I use the baby fruit pots) per egg and it works brilliantly in this recipe. I hope J enjoys them!
