1 box brownie mix, batter prepared according to package instructions
16 Godiva® Signature Salted Caramel Milk Chocolate Mini Bars, halved crosswise
16 marshmallows
4 graham cracker sheets, each divided into 4 rectangles
8 Godiva® Signature Dark Chocolate Mini Bars, halved crosswise

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 16 standard-size muffin cups with paper liners.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h25m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1/4 cup sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1 cup warm water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 large egg whites, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 graham cracker sheets, broken into 24 pieces
One 4-ounce bar semisweet chocolate, broken into 24 shards

Steps:

  • For the graham cracker crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two standard 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar until well combined. Press a heaping tablespoon of the crust mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup and bake until golden and just set, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • For the cupcakes: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the buttermilk, water and oil and whisk to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth. Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs attached, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Let cool in the tins on a wire rack for about 5 minutes, then remove the cupcakes from the tins and allow to cool completely.
  • For the marshmallow frosting: Combine the egg whites, sugar and cream of tartar in a heatproof mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the egg whites are warm and smooth to the touch, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on low speed, gradually increasing to medium and then finally up to high. Beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn the mixer to low and whisk in the vanilla.
  • Spread the frosting on the cupcakes. With a handheld pastry torch, lightly brown the frosting. Decorate each cupcake with a graham cracker piece and a shard of chocolate.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Cupcakes

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 25

1/2 cup (41g) unsweetened cocoa powder*
3/4 cup (94g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature*
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil (melted coconut oil works too)
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (120ml) buttermilk*
1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
2/3 cup JET-PUFFED marshmallow creme (Fluff)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons (30ml) heavy cream*
3/4 - 1 cup (90-120g) confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 and 3/4 cups (210g) confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup (21g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
2 Tablespoons (30ml) heavy cream*
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
salt, to taste
12 JET-PUFFED marshmallows
4 full-sheet graham crackers, crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners. Line a second pan with 2 liners - this recipe makes about 14 cupcakes. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together until thoroughly combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla together until completely smooth. Pour half of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Then half of the buttermilk. Gently stir - about 5 stirs. Repeat with the remaining wet ingredients and buttermilk. Stir until *just* combined; do not overmix. The batter won't be very thick.
  • Pour/spoon the batter into the liners - fill only halfway to avoid spilling over the sides. Bake in batches for 18-19 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before continuing.
  • In a medium bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, marshmallow creme, vanilla, and cream on medium speed until completely smooth. Add 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar and the salt slowly with the mixer running on low, then increase the speed to high and beat for 1 minute. If it looks too thin, add 1/4 cup more confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate the filling until ready to use.
  • Sift together the confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder to assure there are no lumps. Set aside. With a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy - about 2 minutes. Gradually add the sifted sugar/cocoa powder alternately with the heavy cream and vanilla. Beat on low speed after each addition. Once all added, beat on high speed until creamy and combined for at least 2 minutes. Add a pinch of salt if frosting is too sweet. Set aside until ready to use.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut a circle/hole into the center of the cupcake to create a little pocket about 3/4 inch deep. Place 1 spoonful (a little more than 1 teaspoon) of marshmallow filling inside and top with the piece of cupcake you removed to seal. See photos above for visual. Repeat with all cupcakes. You will likely have leftover filling. It's great sandwiched between two chocolate chip cookies.
  • Frost the cupcakes however you like. I used my Wilton 1M swirl piping tip. Sprinkle with crushed graham crackers.
  • Toast the marshmallows on a large baking sheet on one of the top oven racks with your oven on broil. They brown almost immediately, so don't leave the room! Once browned, quickly remove and let cool for 5 minutes. Scoop from the baking sheet using a spatula and place on top of the frosted cupcakes. Enjoy immediately while the marshmallows are nice and gooey.

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.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your cupcakes, so use the best chocolate you can find.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cupcakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Overbaking the cupcakes will make them dry. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Toast the marshmallows just before serving: Toasting the marshmallows just before serving will give them a gooey, melted center.

Conclusion:

Smores cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chocolatey, graham cracker-flavored cupcakes and toasted marshmallow frosting, they're sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying dessert, give these smores cupcakes a try. You won't be disappointed!
