These delicious homemade mini S'more cakes revamp the fireside treat into a decadent cupcake that features all the essential ingredients in a new format. The cakes are filled with a rich chocolate ganache, torched marshmallow frosting and a graham cracker dough.
S'mores are a delicious treat that combines gooey marshmallow and a chocolate bar to create a simple yet rich campfire treat. These cupcakes by Smitten Kitchen emulate those same flavors by transitioning the dessert into a cake. The dough is made from flour and graham cracker crumbs to replicate the sweet biscuit. The cakes are then piped with a gourmet chocolate ganache made from scratch and topped with a marshmallow frosting that is lightly turned golden brown using a torch gun. Each bite of the cupcake will include the graham cracker, chocolate and marshmallow flavors just like a S'more sandwich.
