Cookies and Cream Cupcake

Vanilla cake with crumbs of coarsely crushed oreo cookies embedded within, topped with fresh light vanilla buttercream dusted with oreo crumbs~
After baking too much of the plain Vanilla and Chocolate based cakes, I did an experimental batch of Oreo cookies embedded cake. The first batch came out rather dry. I guess the cookies had absorbed the moisture too much, leaving the cake dry. And so, I altered the recipe a little and the 2nd batch turned out moist and more dense.
Both batches has it's own plus and minus points to them. The dryer batch would taste perfect with a larger pile of butter cream on it, while the moist and heavier batch could go with lesser topping. Either way suits the different preferences I guess!
