    Decadent red velvet brownie cups stuffed with a crunchy Oreo truffle filling then topped with a hard vanilla shell and decorated for Valentine's day! So indulgent they should definitely be reserved for a holiday! Red Velvet Oreo Valentine Cups on white platter with title written on chalkboard

    Happy Valentine's Day! 🙂 It's time for all the chocolate, wine, swanky dinners, and of course, some cute and festive desserts from your favorite food blogger 🙂

    I was a little late on the draw this year coming up with a new Valentine's day recipe so I had to come up with something quick and easy to whip together for you guys! I'm typically a fan of quick and easy recipes anyway so my tardiness is only half of my excuse 🙂

    So pour yourself a glass of red wine, grab your significant other (or your cat, or dog, or Netflix remote), and indulge in these decadent, creamy, crunchy bits of heaven that pair perfectly with Valentine's day! (And Tuesdays, as it turns out...)


    RED VELVET OREO VALENTINE CUPSRed Velvet Oreo Valentine Cups on white platter with conversation hearts close up view

    You're going to start this recipe with a box of red velvet cake mix and a box of Ghiradelli white chocolate pudding mix. (See, this is already super easy.) In a large bowl, combine the two mixes with ½ C melted butter, 2 eggs and ⅓ C plus 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Mix with an electric mixer until fully combined (about 2-3 minutes). The batter will be pretty greasy, don't worry about that. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 325 degrees.

    Decadent red velvet brownie cups stuffed with a crunchy Oreo truffle filling then topped with a hard vanilla shell and decorated for Valentine's day! So indulgent they should definitely be reserved for a holiday!


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 box red velvet cake mix
    • 1 box (3.9 oz) of Ghiradelli white chocolate pudding mix
    • ½ C butter, melted

    • ½ package of vanilla CandiQuick

    Instructions

    1. You're going to start this recipe with a box of red velvet cake mix and a box of Ghiradelli white chocolate pudding mix. (See, this is already super easy.) In a large bowl, combine the two mixes with ½ C melted butter, 2 eggs and ⅓ C plus 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
    2. Mix with an electric mixer until fully combined (about 2-3 minutes). The batter will be pretty greasy, don't worry about that. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
    3. Spray a mini muffin pan really well with cooking spray. Use a melon baller or tablespoon scoop to fill each muffin tin with a scoop of brownie mix, then use the round end of the scoop to press a crater into each brownie ball.
    4. Bake for about 20 minutes, checking from about 17 minutes on (due to variations in oven temperatures) with a toothpick until it comes out clean. Your craters will probably have disappeared so as soon as they come out of the oven, use your melon baller or a ½ tablespoon scoop to press down a new crater into the brownies.
    5. Place ½ package of Oreos into a food processor and process until fine. Place 4 oz cream cheese in a large bowl and microwave for 15 seconds until softened. Add the Oreos to the cream cheese then stir until combined.
    6. Using a ½ tablespoon scoop, press a scoop of Oreo mixture into each brownie cup, filling evenly to the top. Remove from the muffin tins and set on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
    7. Melt ½ of vanilla CandiQuik package in the microwave as directed on the package then carefully spoon over top of the Oreo mixture. Top with Teddy Grahams and sprinkles (or leftover Oreo mixture) as desired. Allow to cool until vanilla has set then dig in.
