S'more Cupcakes

Summer is here and what says summer better than S'mores? S'more Cupcakes! These little babies are magnificent. A treat to be had outside on the patio, after a hot dog!

Really easy to make too! First, I scooped the graham crumb mixture into the bottom of the liners. I used a shaker of Mrs. Dash to press down the crumbs, then added a sprinkling of chopped chocolate.

Next, pop these bad boys into a preheated 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes.

I then made the cake batter and added it to the crumbs and chocolate to about 3/4 full. Next, I added a few mini-marshmallows on top and baked it all for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle came out clean. Finally, add your frosting and some more yummy graham crumbs and a little piece of chocolate and done!

Enjoy the cupcakes!
