Cupcakes are a year-round staple in any home. Here's how to make them mini and cute!
Ingredients
  • 1⅓ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1½ cups white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • Marshmallow Butter Creme Frosting:
  • 2 cups butter, softened
  • 2½ cups confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 (13 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a muffin pan with paper or foil liners. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition, then stir in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk; beat well. Fill the muffin cups ¾ full.
  3. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Frost with your favorite frosting when cool.
  4. For frosting:
  5. Cream butter in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium until butter is soft and fluffy. Gradually beat in confectioners’ sugar, about ½ cup at a time; beat in almond extract. Gently fold the marshmallow creme into the frosting until thoroughly incorporated.
  6. Frost each cupcake and top with a few mini marshmallows, Hershey bar pieces and a graham cracker.
  7. How adorable are these? A perfect treat after your barbecue, or for any school function.
  8. Give them a try and let me know what you think.
