Ingredients

Crust

  • 1-¼ Cups Graham Cracker crumbs
  • ¼ Cup Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar

Cupcakes

  • 1 16oz Box Chocolate cake mix
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1-¼ Cups Water
  • Cup Vegetable Oil

Frosting

  • 1-½ Cups Butter softened
  • 2 Cups Powdered Sugar
  • 2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2 7oz Jars Marshmallow Creme

Decorations

  • 8 Hershey Chocolate Bars mini
  • 48 Mini Marshmallows

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter then divide evenly, in the bottom of baking cups, pressing down to compact with the back of a spoon.
  • Combine the cake ingredients as per the box instructions. Divide evenly between the baking cups filling until about ¾ full. Bake in the oven for time instructed on the box - insert a toothpick to check that they have cooked enough. The toothpick needs to come out clean.
  • Remove all the cupcakes from the pan onto a cooling rack and allow to cool completely.
  • In a mixing bowl combine the frosting ingredients except the marshmallow creme. Beat for about 2 minutes, then slowly add the marshmallow creme and continue beating until completely combined.
  • Frost and decorate cupcakes as desired.

Notes

These cupcakes can be decorated in any way, the chocolate/marshmallow theme is perfect and adds some texture to the cupcake, but this is completely flexible.
