For the Frosting:

Make the Cupcakes:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare cupcake pans with liners. Place an Oreo in the bottom of each cupcake liner.
Whisk together sugar, cocoa, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and flour in a large bowl. Set aside.
Whisk oil, eggs, water, buttermilk, and vanilla in a large measuring cup or bowl.
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. Batter will be thin.
Pour into prepared pans and bake about 13-16 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center. Cool completely before frosting.
Make the Frosting:
Beat the butter, shortening and fluff together in a large bowl until smooth.
Beat in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time. Mix in salt and vanilla and 1 tablespoon of cream, adding more slowly to get your desired texture. Stir in the chopped Oreos.
Frost as desired. Top with mini Oreos for garnish!
