Make the sponges
Preheat the oven to 200C (180C fan).
Beat the butter, vegetable oil and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs.
Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, milk and vanilla. Whisk together.
Line the muffin tray with muffin cases and place an Oreo into the bottom of each case.
Divide the mixture evenly between the cases.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until springy to the touch.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the frosting
Put the butter, icing sugar, vanilla and milk in a large bowl. Whisk together until fluffy.
Stick the 8 Oreos in a food processor (or bash them in a bag) until you have fine crumbs.
Add the Oreo crumb to the frosting, then whisk until well combined.
Transfer into your piping back and pipe generous swirls on top of each muffin
Top the cakes
Break the remaining 6 Oreos in half and push one piece into the frosting of each cake.
