Ingredients
  

Cupcake Batter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs Can use crushed whole graham crackers for better texture.
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened Ensure butter is softened properly.
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
Toppings
  • 1 cup chocolate ganache Use high-quality chocolate for best results.
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows Optional: Toast marshmallows for added flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a cupcake pan with liners.
  2. In a bowl, mix together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Then incorporate the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the whole milk. Blend until just mixed.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Baking
  1. Bake in preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  2. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Finishing Touch
  1. Once cooled, top the cupcakes with a generous dollop of chocolate ganache and sprinkle mini marshmallows on top.
  2. Optionally, lightly toast the marshmallows with a kitchen torch for extra flavor.

Notes

Store leftover cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
