Elle Can't Cook: S'mores Cupcakes

S'mores are such a great treat, but city living doesn't allow for me to whip up a campfire and make s'mores. Fortunately, these s'mores cupcakes recreate the taste without the mess, and are a little more grown up in a way. I created several options, so find what works best for you!

Ingredients:

• Box of chocolate cake mix (follow box directions)
• Graham crackers (I crumbled them up, but you can grind them up in a food processor)
• Marshmallows
• Marshmallow fluff
• Chocolate bars (I used Hershey)

Options:

I prepared the cake mix according to package directions.

OPTION 1: I put smushed up graham crackers on the bottom of each cupcake liner. I poured in a little cake mix, and added my chocolate bar, poured more mix, and baked according to package directions. 

Once there were about 3 minutes left in baking, I added a marshmallow on top and put in the oven to toast. Sprinkle a little more graham crackers if you like on top.

OPTION 2: Put the marshmallow in the bottom of the liner. Cover with cake mix. Top with graham cracker crumbs. Bake and add a Hershey's kiss on top once baked.

OPTION 3: Prepare like Option 1, but instead of adding a marshmallow, once baked, add a graham cracker, cover with marshmallow fluff and add a Hershey's kiss on top (the one pictured is the Pumpkin Spice Kiss).

OPTION 4: Just like option 3, but put the finished product under the broiler (while watching!) for a minute or two to toast the top!

The finished product, next to a pumpkin!

The yummy goodness all melted!
