Рецепт Skor S’mores Cupcakes
Skor S’mores Cupcakes
My 16 year old takes the reigns for today’s new cupcake recipe; it was completely her idea. Long gone are the days when Olivia asks permission to bake, she just takes things into her own hands. I was working away upstairs the other day when the scent of something delicious starting wafting up from the kitchen. I yelled from the top of the stairs to ask what it was but the only reply was “Cupcakes!” An hour or so later I was presented with one of these delicious little beauties.
Olivia is very fond of s’mores and practically anything with a graham cracker crumb crust. I thought it was a clever idea to actually incorporate a graham cracker crumb crust into the cupcake. It really does make a really nice textural contrast and is quite tasty too. Chocolate chips are also incorporated into the batter and it really doesn’t matter that they sink tot he bottom because they sit on top of the bottom crust to provide a rich chocolate layer. A sprinkle of Skor toffee chips on top along with the torched or broiled marshmallows and a piece of graham cracker finish these pretty little cupcakes that I think look good enough to sit in a bakery window. Ya did good kiddo.
What a great addition they would make to any kid’s celebration party but you’d better make a double batch, the adults are just not going to pass these up.

For the graham crumb bases

- 3 tbsp melted butter
- For the chocolate cupcake batter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp cocoa
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup soured milk (1 tsp vinegar in 1/2 cup milk)
- 1/2 cup black coffee
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- For the chocolate ganache topping
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 ounce of whipping cream
- To top each cupcake
- 1/2 to 1 tsp Skor toffee chips
Instructions
For the graham crumb bases
Mix together the crumbs, sugar and butter well
Spoon the crumbs evenly into the bottoms of a paper lined 12 cupcake pan and press them down firmly into the bottom.
For the chocolate cupcake batter
Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips in a mixing bowl and beat with electric mixer for 2 minutes.
Spoon evenly into the prepared cupcake pans.
Sprinkle each cupcake with a few of the chocolate chips.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool completely before spreading on the chocolate ganache.
For the chocolate ganache topping
In a small double boiler melt together the chocolate and until smooth but not overheated. I use a small metal bowl over a small pot of simmering water.
Spread a thing layer on each of the cupcakes
To finish the cupcakes
Sprinkle the cupcakes with the toffee chips and add a few miniature marshmallows.
Brown the marshmallows with a butane kitchen torch or by watching them carefully on a rack about 6 inches from the broiler. Don’t overdo it. A little color is all you need.
Garnish each cupcake with a small piece of graham cracker if you like.
