S'mores Cupcakes

YUM!
I see s'mores written all over pinterest & I've LOVED s'mores since Girl Scouts.

I asked my boyfriend which dessert to make this week & he chose CUPCAKES, so I concocted some S'mores Cupcakes :)

Yields: 18 cupcakes
Preheat oven to 350°F

"Crust"

• 4-tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp sugar (or maple syrup... YES the kind you use on your pancakes!)
• 6 graham cracker bars (I prefer the cinnamon kind)

1. Crumble the graham crackers & mix all ingredients together
2. Spoon evenly into 18 cupcake liners

The Cupcake

• 1 1/2-cup flour
• 1/2-cup sugar
• 1/4-cup honey
• 3/8-cup dark chocolate cocoa powder
• 3/8-tsp baking soda OR 2-tsp baking powder
• 1/8-tsp salt
• 1-cup milk
• 1- large egg
• 1/4-cup canola oil
• 3/8-cup water
• 1-tbsp vanilla extract or 2-tsp maple syrup
• OPTIONAL: 1-cup chocolate chips (I recommend chocolate chips for a more chocolatey flavor)

1. Mix together flour, sugar, honey, cocoa powder, baking soda/powder, and salt
2. Mix in milk, egg, oil, water, and vanilla extract/maple syrup
3. BLEND until the consistency of pudding
4. fold in optional chocolate chips
5. Pour batter over crumbs
6. Bake for 20 minutes @ 350°F

The 'mallows

No cupcake is complete without icing & no s'more is complete without marshmallows!

• 9-large marshmallows

1. After baking for 20 minutes, place 1/2 of a large marshmallow atop each cupcake
2. Continue to bake for 2-4 minutes
3. PULL OUT & SERVE!!

DELICIOUS! :)


Happy Baking :)
