Provided by Sally

Categories     Cupcakes

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 and 1/2 cups (180g) graham cracker crumbs (about 12 full-sheet graham crackers)
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
6 Tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup (1 stick; 113g) unsalted butter
2 4-ounce quality semi-sweet chocolate bars (228g), coarsely chopped
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (63g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/4 cup (21g) unsweetened natural or dutch-process cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large egg whites, at room temperature
3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar (do not skip!)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 12-count muffin pan with cupcake liners. Line a 2nd 12-count muffin pan with 6 liners. (This recipe yields about 18).
  • Using a food processor, grind the graham crackers, to yield about 1 1/2 cups crumbs. Pour into a medium bowl and stir in sugar and melted butter until combined. (You can also pulse it all together in the food processor.) Spoon 1 and 1/2 Tablespoons of crust into each cupcake liner. Press down tightly to create a tight and firm crust. Set aside. (No need to pre-bake.)
  • Melt the butter and chocolate together in a large heat-proof bowl. I microwave in 30-second increments, stopping and stirring after each until melted and smooth. Whisk in the granulated sugar. Allow to slightly cool for 5 minutes before adding the eggs. (So as not to cook the eggs!) Whisk in the eggs, vanilla, flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Batter will be thick. Spoon evenly into each cupcake liner on top of the graham cracker crusts, filling almost to the top of the liners.
  • Bake brownie cups for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs (no wet batter). Keep your eye on them and check after 22 minutes or so. Mine take around 26 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in pans.
  • Place egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar in a heatproof bowl. Set bowl over a saucepan filled with 2 inches of simmering water. Do not let the bowl touch the water. (You can use a double boiler if you have one.) Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved, about 4 minutes. The mixture's temperature taken with an instant read thermometer should be 160°F (71°C). If it's not, keep cooking and whisking until thinned out and temperature is warm enough. Remove from heat. Add the vanilla extract, then, using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat on high speed for 5 minutes until stiff, glossy peaks form. You can read more about and watch me make this in my separate marshmallow meringue frosting post.
  • Pipe onto cooled brownie cupcakes. I used an Ateco 808 piping tip. If desired, use a kitchen torch to lightly toast.
  • Cover and store leftover cupcakes at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.

Provided by Browned Butter Blondie

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
7 TBSP unsalted butter, melted
1 stick (1/2 cup) salted butter
7 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped (I use 70% cocao)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 medium eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup plus 2 TBSP all purpose flour
1/4 cup Dutch process cocoa powder, sifted
2 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 tsp cream of tarter
1/2 tsp vanilla
Melted semi sweet chocolate and salted caramel for drizzling. (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with 12 paper liners. Set aside.
  • Use a food processor fitted with the blade attachment to finely ground the graham crackers.
  • Add the sugar and melted butter, pulse to combine well.
  • Use a spoon to place 1 -2 tablespoons of crushed graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner. Use your hands of the flat end of an object to press the crust down firmly so there are no loose crumbs. Set aside.
  • Set the chocolate and butter in a heat proof bowl over a double boiler, making sure the bowl does not touch the water below. Simmer over medium heat and melt the butter and chocolate together, stirring often. Remove from the heat once the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Whisk in the sugar and vanilla.
  • Allow the chocolate to cool for 5-10 minutes and then add the eggs.
  • Whisk until combined.
  • Add the flour and cocoa powder. Mix until just barely combined. Do not over mix.
  • Spoon the batter on top of the graham cracker crust, filling almost to the top of the liner.
  • Bake on the center rack of the oven for 23-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the brownie comes out with just a few crumbs remaining. If the center is still wet, continue baking.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and allow cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
  • Place egg whites, sugar and cream of tarter in the metal bowl of a stand mixer.
  • Whisk to combine and then set the bowl over a pot of simmering water. Be careful that the bowl is not touching the water below.
  • Whisking constantly, the sugar will dissolve and the eggs will begin to foam on top. This takes about 4-5 minutes.
  • When eggs are warm to the touch, transfer the bowl to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed for 5-6 minutes until stiff peaks form. Add in the vanilla during the last minute of mixing. The mixture will be glossy.
  • Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip and pipe the frosting onto the cooled brownie cupcakes.
  • *Note: if making large, tall swirls you may need to double the frosting recipe in order to frost all 12 cupcakes.
  • Use a kitchen torch to toast the frosting or drizzle with melted chocolate and salted caramel if desired.

S'MORES CUPCAKES

Categories     dessert

Time 50m

Yield 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup all-purpose flour (100 grams)
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (68 grams)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, divided (60 milliliters plus 15 milliliters)
3/4 cup granulated sugar (150 grams)
1 egg
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk (125 milliliters)
2 tablespoons boiling water (30 milliliters)
2 tablespoons cocoa powder (9 grams)
3 egg whites
3/4 cup granulated sugar (150 grams)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 squares milk chocolate, optional

Steps:

  • For the cupcakes: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and a line muffin tin with liners.
  • Whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat together 1/4 cup of vegetable oil with the sugar, egg and vanilla in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl about halfway through.
  • Add about a third of the dry ingredients into the sugar and oil mixture and stir gently until almost combined. Add in half of the buttermilk and continue to stir just until combined. Stir in another third of the dry ingredients followed by the remaining buttermilk and finally the remaining dry ingredients. Stir in the boiling water.
  • Whisk together the cocoa powder with the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a medium bowl. Scoop about 1 cup of the graham cracker cake batter into the cocoa mixture. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  • Pour about 2 tablespoons of the graham cracker cake batter into each cupcake liner followed by 2 tablespoons of the chocolate batter. Using a butter knife or skewer, swirl the batters together to achieve a marbled effect. Bake the cupcakes for 20 to 25 minutes, or until set and a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool to room temperature.
  • For the marshmallow topping: Whisk together the egg whites, sugar and salt in a large metal or glass bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer and place it over a saucepan containing about 2 centimeters (1 inch) of simmering water. Cook the egg whites, whisking frequently, until they reach 160 degrees F (72 degrees C), or until the mixture thins and you can no longer feel any sugar granules when you rub some between your fingers, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Remove the bowl from the heat and whip the cooked meringue using a whisk attachment or hand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 to 5 minutes. Whip in the vanilla extract then transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip or a large resealable bag with the corner cut off. Pipe large dollops of the topping onto each cupcake.
  • Using a kitchen torch, toast the marshmallow meringue until golden brown. If you do not have a torch, you can place the cupcakes under the broiler for a minute or two until toasty. If desired, garnish with a piece of milk chocolate. Store the cupcakes in the fridge for up to 3 days, letting them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften up before eating.
