S’mores Cupcakes with Ganache and Marshmallow
Ingredients
WHISK
- 1 ½ cups Powdered graham cracker crumbs (about 12 whole graham crackers)
- ½ cup All-purpose flour
- ½ tsp. Baking powder
- ½ tsp. Ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp. Table salt
- ¼ tsp. Baking soda
CREAM
- 1 ½ Sticks unsalted butter (12 Tbsp.), room temperature
- 1 cup Sugar
- 3 Eggs, room temperature
- 1 tbsp. Molasses
- 1 tsp. Pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup Buttermilk
ASSEMBLE, SPREAD
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with liners.
The Cupcakes
- whisk together graham crumbs, flour, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a bowl.
- Cream butter and sugar in a bowl with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition until incorporated.
- Mix in molasses and vanilla.
- Alternately add graham mixture and buttermilk (starting and ending with the graham mixture) until combined.
- Fill each muffin cup two-thirds full with batter. Bake cupcakes until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 25–30 minutes; cool in pan 5 minutes. Transfer cupcakes to a rack to cool.
- To assemble, spread 2 tsp. Chocolate Ganache over top of each cupcake, then pipe on Marshmallow Topping.
Notes
- Paper cupcake liners work best for these cupcakes. Foil liners trap moisture, resulting in gummy, soggy cupcakes.
- If you’d rather not make your own marshmallow topping, substitute with 2 cups marshmallow creme.
