Fireside Cupcakes.

Cupcake Day.

Dessert. It seems that everything tastes better when it looks better. I came across an idea for a cupcake this week after snacking on a Hershey Bar. Here is what I have dubbed a Fireside Cupcake... A vanilla cake with a graham cracker crust, vanilla frosting, and topped with the ingredients for a S'more.

Yum.

Graham Cracker Crust

Pressed Into Cupcake Holders

Topped with Vanilla Cake...

Fireside Cupcakes:

Preheat the oven to 350degrees.

For the Crust:
1 Cup Crushed Graham Crackers
4 Tablespoons melted butter
2 Tablespoons Sugar

Mix all of the ingredients and press into the bottom of 15 cupcake cups. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until golden.

For the Cake:
1 3/4 Cup Cake Flour
1 Cup sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, room temperature, diced
1/2 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 milk
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
2 eggs
1 egg white

With an electric mixer, blend flour, sugar, cinnamon, butter, baking powder, salt, and 1/4cup milk. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and remaining milk. In batches, with electric mixer, mix the flour mixture with the egg mixture. Blend on medium speed for about 3 minutes.

Pour the batter evenly into the 15 cups. Bake for 20 minutes, or until set.

Frost with vanilla frosting, and top with half of a marshmallow, piece of a graham cracker, and a piece of Hersheys Chocolate.

Hershey Bars...

And Marshmallows!
