Ingredients

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup marshmallow fluff
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Chocolate bars and mini marshmallows for topping

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust: In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner to form a crust.
Make the Chocolate Cake Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Fill the Cupcake Liners: Divide the chocolate batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool completely.
Prepare the Marshmallow Frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat the marshmallow fluff and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Frost the Cupcakes: Once the cupcakes are cool, pipe or spread the marshmallow frosting on top of each cupcake.
Garnish: Top each cupcake with a piece of chocolate bar and a few mini marshmallows. Optionally, you can toast the marshmallows with a kitchen torch for an authentic s’mores flavor.
Serve: Enjoy your S’mores Cupcakes immediately or store them in an airtight container.
