Week 27 :: S-mores Cupcakes

 

This was such a sticky fun and easy recipe.  I needed to make quick cupcakes and didn't have all my cake-baking and decorating stuff with me.  I looked at a bunch or ideas online and came up with these s'mores cupcakes!   There are a ton of variations out there, all of which I am sure are great, (I mean how can you go wrong with chocolate, marshmallow, and graham cracker?) and this final idea was no exception.

Here is what you need:

• Chocolate cake recipe
• 13 oz marshmallow fluff
• 1 package graham crackers (1/2 a box)--crushed into crumbs
• 2 Hershey bars (12 squares each)

So you start with a basic chocolate cake recipe, and make 24 cupcakes.  Once they have completely cooled place a blob of marshmallow fluff on top like so:

Let it sit for a few minutes and the marshmallow will spread out on top of the cupcake.  If you have to spread out with the back of a spoon or a knife, let sit a little longer and it will smooth out.  Once the marshmallow has spread out, roll the cupcake in a plate of graham cracker crumbs like so:

Then add a little Hershey bar on top and voila!  If you don't serve immediately, keep in the fridge.

Note ::  Use foil cups for easier clean up.  Once the marshmallow has spread out you can remove the foil with any excess marshmallow and you are left with a plain liner on the cupcake!

Happy Baking!
