Mini Smores Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut 34 rounds from the tortillas.
• Microwave the butter, sugar and cinnamon in a medium microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until the butter is melted. Brush both sides of the tortilla rounds with the butter mixture.
• Flip two 12-cup muffin tins upside down. Place the tortilla rounds in between the muffin cups in both directions, folding them to create mini taco shells (you should get 17 per muffin tin). Bake until the shells are crisp and just beginning to turn light golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.
• Carefully overstuff each shell with mini marshmallows while they are still warm and in the muffin tins. Using a kitchen blowtorch, toast the marshmallows until golden brown all over. Stuff 1 milk chocolate rectangle on top of the marshmallows on each taco, pushing it down so the warm marshmallows melt the chocolate. Let sit until partially melted, about 5 minutes, then use the kitchen blowtorch to melt the chocolate completely.
• Put the remaining chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until melted, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the tacos to a serving platter, sprinkle with the graham cracker crumbs and serve warm alongside the melted chocolate for dipping.

Steps:

• Stuff 1 chocolate chip inside each marshmallow, using a hot metal spoon to make the marshmallow stick to the chocolate and form a very small ball. Place on a plate lined with waxed paper. Transfer to the freezer.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 muffin tins.
• Mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter in a bowl.
• Pack graham cracker mixture into the muffin tins with the back of a spoon, creating a crust on the bottom of each cup.
• Beat cream cheese and sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Blend in milk. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing just enough to incorporate. Beat in sour cream, flour, and vanilla extract until batter is smooth.
• Fill muffin cups halfway with batter. Place a frozen marshmallow ball in the center of each. Cover with remaining batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Spoon marshmallow cream into a small pot. Heat over low heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Mix in cinnamon and cocoa powder. Pipe frosting over cooled cupcakes.

Steps:

• For the graham cracker crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two standard 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
• In a small bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar until well combined. Press a heaping tablespoon of the crust mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup and bake until golden and just set, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the cupcakes: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the buttermilk, water and oil and whisk to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth. Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs attached, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Let cool in the tins on a wire rack for about 5 minutes, then remove the cupcakes from the tins and allow to cool completely.
• For the marshmallow frosting: Combine the egg whites, sugar and cream of tartar in a heatproof mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the egg whites are warm and smooth to the touch, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on low speed, gradually increasing to medium and then finally up to high. Beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn the mixer to low and whisk in the vanilla.
• Spread the frosting on the cupcakes. With a handheld pastry torch, lightly brown the frosting. Decorate each cupcake with a graham cracker piece and a shard of chocolate.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line a mini muffin pan with paper wrappers.
• Using a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon measure, scoop the Devil's Food Cake batter into the prepared pan. (The batter should come halfway to two-thirds the way up the sides of the mini muffin wrappers.)
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through, until the centers of the cupcakes spring back to the touch.
• Remove the cupcakes from the oven, let them cool slightly in the pan, then finish cooling them right side up on a wire rack until they reach room temperature.
• Repeat this process to bake the remaining batter, as necessary.
• While the cupcakes are baking and cooling, prepare the Marshmallow Icing, if you have not already done so. Set it aside.
• Once all the cupcakes have cooled to room temperature, fit a pastry bag with a large star tip and fill it with icing. Pipe a star-shape dollop of icing on top of each cupcake (see Filling a Pastry Bag and Piping, page 11). Repeat until all the cupcakes have been iced.
• Once iced, the cupcakes can be kept covered or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Bring them to room temperature before serving.
• Just before serving, generously sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs across the tops of the iced cupcakes.
• Polish your look
• This recipe will also yield 15 to 18 standard-size cupcakes or a two-layer 6-inch cake, baked accordingly. To make S'mores Cake, ice chocolate cake layers with Marshmallow Icing and gently press graham cracker crumbs against the sides (see Blueberry "Cheesecake," page 123, for instructions on adhering cookie crumbs to the sides of cake).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 16 standard-size muffin cups with paper liners.
• Using a 1-tablespoon scoop with a spring release, scoop 1 tablespoon of brownie batter into the bottom of a prepared muffin cup. Stack 2 halves of a Godiva® Signature Salted Caramel Milk Chocolate Mini Bar horizontally in the center of the cup, then cover with 2 more tablespoons of brownie batter. Repeat with the remaining 15 cups, or until the brownie batter is used up.
• Bake the brownie cupcakes for 22-25 minutes, or until set.
• Remove the brownie cupcakes from the oven and turn the oven to broil.
• Place a marshmallow upright on top of each cupcake, then return to the oven and broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the marshmallows are soft and browned. Watch closely so the marshmallows don't burn.
• Remove the cupcakes from the oven and, using a clean spoon, gently press the center of each marshmallow straight down so the marshmallow spreads to cover most of the top of the cupcake.
• Remove cupcakes from the muffin tins and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Garnish each cupcake by gently pressing a graham cracker rectangle and a Godiva® Signature Dark Chocolate Mini Bar half through the marshmallow into the top of the cupcake.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (175˚C)
• Combine crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl until all of the crumbs are moistened with butter.
• Fill foil cupcake liners halfway, then using a small spoon or your fingers push down the crumbs to form your crust.
• Bake 5-7 minutes, until they are just starting to turn golden brown. Set aside.
• Lower oven temperature to 275˚F (140˚C).
• Combine the cream, butter, and sugar into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 90-120 seconds, stirring halfway through.
• Add chopped chocolate and stir until all the chocolate is melted.
• Whisk 3 eggs and 2 yolks in a separate bowl. While stirring eggs, add a small amount of warm chocolate/cream mixture into the eggs (to gently warm up your eggs so they don't scramble!)
• Pour the egg mixture back into the chocolate/cream mixture and stir to completely combine the two.
• Pour the chocolate filling into cupcake foils leaving a little bit of room at the top ( ¼-⅛ of an inch (6-3 mm) or so).
• Bake for 15-17 minutes, until the chocolate filling is just set and wobbles very slightly shaken
• Turn on the broiler to high and top each pie with a marshmallow.
• Broil the pies until the marshmallows just start to char and brown. If the tops brown too quickly for the marshmallow to spread across the entire top of the pie, take the pan out and once they have cooled for a minute, press down on the top of the marshmallow and the gooey insides will come out and spill on the top of your pie!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Prepare, bake, and cool cupcakes.

• Frost cupcakes with icing mixture.
• Garnish as desired.
