Preheat your oven to 350F 177C

Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, chai spice mix, baking powder, baking soda, and salt

Set aside

In another mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition

Stir in the vanilla extract

Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the milk in three parts, starting and ending with the dry ingredients

Mix until just combined

Fold in the brewed chai tea and brewed coffee until the batter is smooth

Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean

Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely

Once cooled, you can frost them with your favorite chai-flavored frosting or enjoy them plain

Sprinkle with a dash of chai spice mix for extra flavor if desired

Oreo Cake Pops

Oreo Cake Pops are a delicious and adorable treat that are ideal for parties or any sweet occasion. These bite-sized treats combine classic Oreo cookie flavors with creamy cheesecake, all enrobed in smooth white chocolate.

Ingredients:

• 1 package Oreo cookies
• 1 package cream cheese 8 oz
• 1 package white chocolate chips 12 oz
• Lollipop sticks
• Sprinkles optional

Instructions:

Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and using a rolling pin

In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreo crumbs with the cream cheese

Mix until a dough-like consistency is formed

Roll the mixture into small balls, about the size of a walnut

Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and fully melted

Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into the melted white chocolate, then insert it into a cake ball, about halfway through

Place the cake pops on a tray or baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze them for about 15 minutes to set the chocolate and secure the sticks

Once the cake pops are firm, dip each one into the melted white chocolate, covering the entire cake ball

Allow the excess chocolate to drip off

If desired, decorate the cake pops with sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet

Stick the cake pops upright into a Styrofoam block or a cake pop stand to allow the chocolate to set completely

Once the chocolate is fully set, your Oreo Cake Pops are ready to be enjoyed!
