These treats were inspired by everyone’s favorite mouse! Try these fun Mickey-inspired treats for a sweet dessert. Easy OREO ear Mickey Mouse cupcakes will be the hit of your dessert table!
I have been meaning to post these adorable Mickey Mouse inspired for YEARS now! Today is the day! It does not get any easier to whip up some adorable Disney-rific desserts. This post shows box mix cupcakes but you could use your favorite from-scratch recipe. OR, let’s just be really real and talk about time and how there’s never enough of it… you can absolutely use store-bought cupcakes for these treats! Stick some red cupcake liners on the bottom and top with the OREO cookies and you’d be done. This is a ZERO judgement zone! I’m always up for a great time-saving hack.
Before I get into the details of these cupcake treats, check out some of the other Disney-themed recipes and snacks that I have shared over the years.

Mickey Mouse Cupcakes with OREO Ears
Let’s dig right into these cupcakes!
Mickey Mouse Cupcakes with OREO Ears
Equipment
- 1M Wilton tip
- 1 Wilton disposable piping bag
- 2 12-cup cupcake baking trays
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
- 1 cup water
- 3 large eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 48 OREO cookies
- 3 tubs vanilla frosting
- Non-stick cooking spray or grease for the tray
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Grease the sides and bottoms of each cup in the cupcake tray.
- Prepare cake mix according to the directions on the box. In this case, we added the cake mix, oil, eggs and water to a large bowl and mixed everything together while well-combined.
- Pour batter in cupcake trays and bake for 18-21 minutes (until an inserted fork comes out clean).
- Let cupcakes cool completely before frosting.
- While cupcakes are cooling, cut the tip of the bag and the insert the 1M Wilton tip, then add the frosting to fill the bag, leaving enough space at the top in order to twist the bag so frosting will not leak out.
- Once the cupcakes have cooled completely, frost with vanilla frosting.
- Add 2 OREO cookies to each side of the cupcake top to create Mickey's ears.
Easy and so adorable!
