For Young Women's last night, we had camp certification. I was in charge of treats and I was DYING to try to make some s'more cupcakes, fitting for camp right? Anyway, I took a bunch of different things from a bunch of different recipes and made my own little experiment...
These are my "Please Sir, Can I Have S'more" cupcakes. Ü
First I started by mixing graham crackers, brown sugar and melted butter (exact measurements? who knows? I always get teased for just throwing stuff in!) and smashed a little into each cupcake cup...
Then I baked in for 4-5ish minutes.
Then I put in a scoop of chocolate batter (I used the Darn Good Chocolate Cake recipe by the Cake Doctor(I think). It's delish.) Then I put in a few mini marshmallows. (I'm totally changing the spelling of that word. From now on, it will be marshmEllows because that's how you say it. Amen.)
Then I put in another scoop of chocolate batter and topped it with more of the graham cracker mixture...
And the finished product...
yuuummmm! (Side note: good thing my baking skills are semi-up to par because my photography skills? Not so much. Please just pretend it's in focus so I don't have this embarrassed look on my face? Thanks.)
Okay, so they weren't totally finished because I had to add flair!
Seriously? I was rather proud. At this point, I was all, even if they don't taste good, I get points for the cuteness right?? So of course I let the girl's taste test them first because hey, if someone is going to die, it shouldn't be the maker of the cupcakes. Ü Anyway, they went over really well, they loved them, the dad and husband liked them... so then I decided it was safe and I finally tasted one. The best part? The top part of the cupcake with a little marshmellow frosting and the graham cracker crumbs. The even better part? They were tasty and I made them! I have issues and am rather accident-prone and clumsy, so when I do something right, it's a relief! Ü
Don't they just look like soldiers at the ready?! Prepared to make stomachs everywhere smile?!
No? You can't see it? Here, I'll help...
hahahahaha! I have a feeling I might be the only one who thinks that funny, but I serious can't help thinking it's hilarious! Don't even ask how long I spent--at work--doing this. (So worth it!)
