Get your s’mores fix all year long with this recipe for s’mores cupcakes. It’s got the rich goodness taste of chocolate, marshmallow and graham cracker baked into one but the easiness of using a box cake mix. Topped with marshmallow buttercream and drizzled with chocolate makes it hard to stop at just one.
I love making these for the family when we can’t get outside by the fire. We’ve even camped out in our living room by setting up a tent watching movies and enjoying some s’mores cupcakes like we were at the campground. Wherever you decide to eat your cupcakes, I’m sure you’ll enjoy them as much as we did!
