S’mores Cupcakes

For the marshmallow buttercream frosting:

• 8 oz. jumbo (or mini) marshmallows or 1 Jar of Marshmallow Creme
• 1 stick butter
• 2 & 1/2-3 cups powdered sugar

Heat the butter, marshmallows and milk in a saucepan over medium heat until melted. Whisk together until smooth. remove from heat and allow to cool. Place in a large heat-proof bowl, beat in powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time.

Set aside.

For the chocolate ganache filling:

• 4 oz. semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 tbsp butter

Place chocolate in a stainless steel bowl. Heat the cream and butter over medium-low until just boiling. Remove from heat and immediately pour over chocolate. Let stand 5 minutes, then whisk until smooth. Place in the freezer.

For the cupcakes:

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 15 whole crackers ground in processor)
• 1/2 cup all purpose flour
• 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
• 3/4 cups sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup whole milk

 Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 12 standard muffin cups with paper liners. Whisk graham crumbs, flour, baking powder, and pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Beat butter and sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating to blend between additions. Beat in vanilla. Add graham-cracker mixture in 3 additions alternately with milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with graham-cracker mixture.

Fill muffin cups 1/3 of the way with batter. Spoon now hardened ganache into the center of each cup by teaspoon. Divide remaining batter between the cups to cover ganache.

Bake cupcakes until tester inserted into center come out clean, about 22 minutes. Transfer cupcakes to rack; cool completely.

Spoon marshmallow buttercream frosting over each cupcake. Garnish with additional crushed graham crackers and melted chocolate drizzle.

It is almost time for me to eat a cupcake.

Smile and Eat it

Here is the recipe!  ENJOY

Ferrero Rocher Cupcakes by Monica H

• 1 recipe chocolate cupcakes (recipe below)
• 1 13 oz. jar Nutella
• 15 Ferrero Rocher candies

Cut out a small piece out of the top of the cooled cupcake using a small paring knife. Discard or eat the small pieces of cake that are removed from the cupcakes. This will create a well for the Nutella to sit in.

Fill each cupcake with 1 tablespoon of Nutella. Repeat until the Nutella has been evenly divided amongst the cupcakes. Top off each cupcake with a Ferrero Rocher candy, slighting pressing into the Nutella so it stays put.

Store at room temperature in an airtight container.

Makes 15 cupcakes.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

My weakness... besides Cupcakes - most definitely has to be chocolate chip cookies!  The small bite size ones - good grief I could eat them all day.  So today I am going to give you some of my favorite pictures of chocolate chip cookie cupcakes!  I hope you enjoy!

All this cupcake needs is frosting on the top!  But the cookie looks good.

This is chocolate chip FROSTING on top!  not cookie dough!  does that not look soo good!  yes. all of them - are mine!  NOT REALLY! :)  this is just a picture off the internet but it looks good :)

this cupcake looks like it was so good - however, this picture is from the internet and not from my kitchen and i promise that half of this cupcake is NOT in my stomach!  GUARANTEE

oooo - you wouldn't dare tempt me with this one with 35 days left... 

cupcakes are so memorable and so fun and so tasty!

You will always remember looking at these cupcakes - and then the first bite after withdraw for so long is just so incredibly filling!  

chocolate with cookie dough... umm yes? 

Most of the cupcakes look like professionals have made them - however, this one looks like I could have made it.  VERY SATISFYING!

Okay I know it's not chocolate chip cookie - but it is the best girl scout cookie ever made:  THE SAMOA!  love it.  Doesn't the carmel-ly drip and the chocolate AND vanilla buttercream frosting look so intense!  I could probably eat all of these.


I LOVE CUPCAKES!
