Beautiful S'Mores Cupcake

I always think of s'mores as Rachel's favorite, but this one is so pretty and elegant I'd be tempted. If it weren't for the non-vegetarian gelatin in the marshmallow, I mean. Still, is this not gorgeous?

S'mores Cupcakes

I haven't made cupcakes in a while, so I'm really excited about sharing these with you! I've wanted to make s'mores cupcakes for a while and I finally got the chance to earlier this week.

I had planned on making chocolate cupcakes, but I accidentally bought a dark chocolate cake mix. I'm glad I did though because it was delicious. I've seen a lot of s'mores cupcakes with toasted marshmallow frosting, so I decided to make a marshmallow filling instead. After searching the internet for an easy marshmallow filling recipe, I found this one from Erin Cooks. The cupcakes are topped with chocolate frosting, crushed graham crackers, and mini chocolate chips!

Marshmallow Monster Cupcakes

How cute are these!? I love the idea of decorating a jumbo marshmallow and making it stick out of the top of the cupcake. So creative!

These Frankenstein, ghost, and pumpkin cupcakes were made by Julie Yoon. She decorated the marshmallows with frosting, toasted almonds, chocolate chips, and different colored fruit roll-ups. Then she scooped out the tops of the cupcakes and inserted the finished marshmallows.

Hot Cocoa Anyone?

Yes these are cupcakes. Look very very closely..... hard to tell right?!?

They were made by Anna at Diary of a Ladybird, a blogger from Sydney, Australia.

She created these little mindwarps by wrapping fondant around a vanilla cupcake and making icing to look like hot cocoa.
