Equipment

  • Oven
  • 2 cupcake pans (24 wells total)
  • Paper liners
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Stand mixer or hand mixer
  • Large cookie scoop (3 tablespoons)
  • Wire rack

Ingredients

For the graham cracker base:

  • 5 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1,1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

For the cupcakes:

  • 1 package devil’s food cake mix 
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1 package  instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line cupcake pans with paper liners.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar, then divide between liners and press firmly.
  • Beat cake and pudding mixes, sour cream, oil, eggs, vanilla, and water until well combined.
  • Distribute batter between cupcake wells using a large cookie scoop.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 18-22 minutes until tops spring back when touched.
  • Cool cupcakes in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare marshmallow frosting and pipe or spread onto cooled cupcakes.
  • Optionally, use kitchen torch to lightly brown frosting and top with milk chocolate square before serving.

Notes

  • Whip the egg whites until they reach room temperature before using them to make the frosting. Prepare them with ease and speed.
  • Before you mix the milk and eggs into the cupcake batter, let them cool to room temperature.
  • To make the marshmallow meringue frosting seem like a gorgeous golden brown, you can use a kitchen torch. Put the cupcakes on a baking sheet and broil them in the oven if you don't have a kitchen torch. You should simply monitor them closely!
