Well, I missed it!
National S’more Day! But the second I found out about it we celebrated it!!
We made
Easy S'more clusters.
These were very tasty, even though mine look blah. I didn't have enough chocolate and my graham crackers were too crumby.
We also made
S'more cupcakes.
VERY yummy! And I have found a new frosting!!
I used the Martha Stewart chocolate cupcake recipe they had listed. It was good but I would really use Wacky Cake instead! But that is my personal favorite.
Now, I printed the recipe and then went from memory so I didn't sprinkle the frosting with graham crackers. I did put a piece of cracker on top of each cup cake and then frosted them.
But the marshmallow cream frosting is fabulous! It's SUPER sweet if you just eat it, but on the cupcake... YUM! I have decorated cakes with yummy butter cream frosting before and wished that it would stay in place and not be melty and drippy. But this stuff is good and WILL stay in place! It needed marshmallow cream to glue/stick it in place. I will be using this one again!
Marshmallow Cream Frosting
3 sticks butter, room temperature
1 lb. (2 cups) confectioner's sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
16 oz. tub of marshmallow cream (I recommend Fluff)
Cream the butter (I love my Kitchenaid!) on high until it's light and fluffy. Add the confectioner's sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, and beat until fluffy each time. Beat in the vanilla until incorporated. Then dump in the Fluff and mix it up 'til it's all creamy. Transfer to pastry bag (if desired) and pipe onto cupcakes! (You can also cut the corner off a Ziploc bag and use that instead.)
