Mini Smores Cups Recipe 425

SUPER S'MORES CUPCAKES

Steps:

• For the graham cracker crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two standard 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
• In a small bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar until well combined. Press a heaping tablespoon of the crust mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup and bake until golden and just set, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the cupcakes: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the buttermilk, water and oil and whisk to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth. Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs attached, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Let cool in the tins on a wire rack for about 5 minutes, then remove the cupcakes from the tins and allow to cool completely.
• For the marshmallow frosting: Combine the egg whites, sugar and cream of tartar in a heatproof mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the egg whites are warm and smooth to the touch, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on low speed, gradually increasing to medium and then finally up to high. Beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn the mixer to low and whisk in the vanilla.
• Spread the frosting on the cupcakes. With a handheld pastry torch, lightly brown the frosting. Decorate each cupcake with a graham cracker piece and a shard of chocolate.

MINI S'MORES CUPS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Directions makes 12 mini cups Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grind graham crackers in a mini-food processor until a fine powder forms. Add in powdered sugar and melted butter until mixture turns into a crust (it shouldn't be greasy, if it's too greasy, add some powdered sugar to the mixture. But not too much.) Spray mini-muffin tin with cooking spray. Press about 1 tablespoon of the graham cracker crust into each mini-cup with the back side of the melon-baller (it helps form the cup shape. you can use your hands if you want - either way works). Bake 4 minutes, remove pan. Add about 3 dark chocolate chips to each cup, put back into oven for about a minute. Cut marshmallows in half crosswise and place one marshmallow (cut side down) into each cup, covering up the dark chocolate. Put back in the oven for 1-2 minutes, or until marshmallows begin to grow in size. Remove from oven, and cool on rack for about 15 minutes. Carefully remove cups from the pan, and continue to cool on rack. Break candy bars in a small, microwavable bowl, and melt (slowly, nuking for only about 10 seconds at a time, and stirring often). Dip each s'mores cup in the chocolate, or drizzle chocolate over s'mores cup with a spoon. Leave alone to set (in fridge is best - NOT in the freezer).

S'MORES IN A CUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 42 miniature muffin tins with paper liners.
• Mix graham cracker crumbs with butter in a bowl until evenly combined. Spoon graham cracker mixture into the prepared muffin cups, pressing into the bottom and up the sides creating a crust.
• Place 1 chocolate square onto each crust and top each with 3 miniature marshmallows.
• Bake in the preheated oven until marshmallows are puffy and chocolate is melted, about 6 minutes.

MINI S'MORES CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line a mini muffin pan with paper wrappers.
• Using a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon measure, scoop the Devil's Food Cake batter into the prepared pan. (The batter should come halfway to two-thirds the way up the sides of the mini muffin wrappers.)
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through, until the centers of the cupcakes spring back to the touch.
• Remove the cupcakes from the oven, let them cool slightly in the pan, then finish cooling them right side up on a wire rack until they reach room temperature.
• Repeat this process to bake the remaining batter, as necessary.
• While the cupcakes are baking and cooling, prepare the Marshmallow Icing, if you have not already done so. Set it aside.
• Once all the cupcakes have cooled to room temperature, fit a pastry bag with a large star tip and fill it with icing. Pipe a star-shape dollop of icing on top of each cupcake (see Filling a Pastry Bag and Piping, page 11). Repeat until all the cupcakes have been iced.
• Once iced, the cupcakes can be kept covered or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Bring them to room temperature before serving.
• Just before serving, generously sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs across the tops of the iced cupcakes.
• Polish your look
• This recipe will also yield 15 to 18 standard-size cupcakes or a two-layer 6-inch cake, baked accordingly. To make S'mores Cake, ice chocolate cake layers with Marshmallow Icing and gently press graham cracker crumbs against the sides (see Blueberry "Cheesecake," page 123, for instructions on adhering cookie crumbs to the sides of cake).

MINI S'MORES ECLAIR RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, add the butter, water, and salt over medium heat. Allow all the butter to melt and bring the mixture to a boil.
• As soon as the mixture begins to boil, reduce heat to medium-low and add in the flour and graham cracker crumbs. Using a wooden spoon, mix thoroughly to combine.
• Continue stirring (about two minutes). The dough should form into a ball and easily pull away from the sided of the pan. Remove the mixture from heat and leave to cool for 5 minutes.
• Add in the eggs to the cooled dough, one at a time, being sure to fully incorporate each egg before adding the next. (The eggs will initially be difficult to incorporate into the dough - but continue stirring vigorously and they will eventually come together to form a smooth shiny dough)
• Preheat oven to 425˚F (220˚C)
• Once the dough comes together, transfer it to a piping bag and pipe onto a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet into 2-3 inch (5-7cm) logs.
• Smooth out any peaks/tails caused by piping with a wet fingertip (this will ensure your eclairs cook evenly and maintain an even shape)
• Brush the eclairs with beaten egg.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes at 425˚F. Then, without opening the oven, reduce heat to 350˚ (175˚C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
• Remove eclairs from oven. Using the tip of a knife, cut a small "x" into the bottom of each eclair and transfer ("x" side up) to a cooling rack. (this will allow any excess steam/moisture to escape ensuring your eclairs maintain their shape).
• Fill a piping bag fitted with a narrow tip with marshmallow fluff.
• Just before serving, pipe the fluff into the cooled eclairs.
• Break apart chocolate and add to a small microwave safe bowl.
• To a separate, small microwave safe bowl, add the heavy cream.
• Microwave the cream for one minute. Remove and immediately pour the hot cream over the chocolate pieces. Stir until the chocolate has melted and a nice ganache has formed. (if necessary place the bowl with chocolate and cream in the microwave for 10 second increments, stirring after each until smooth).
• Dip the top side of the filled eclairs into the melted chocolate.
• Sprinkle with additional graham cracker crumbs and top with mini marshmallows (if you have a kitchen torch you can "toast" the marshmallows to make them super cute). Best served immediately!
• Enjoy!

SMORES WITH REESE'S CUPS

Steps:

• Split or break the graham crackers into twos and set aside.
• Next, you need to heat the marshmallows. There are several ways to do this.
• If using the broiler: you need to place the marshmallows on top of 1/2 graham cracker and put under the broiler for a few seconds or until golden brown and toasted. Remove the Graham and place a Reese's cup on top then place the other 1/2 graham crack back on top and press it lightly to flatten the marshmallows.
• If using a campfire/fire-pit: Prepare the graham cracker in an area near your fire, and using a utensil (such as a tree branch or your marshmallow roasting sticks) roast the marshmallows until golden brown and toasted. Place the marshmallow on 1/2 of the graham cracker, place a Reese's cup on top, and the other 1/2 of graham, light press down to flatten the marshmallows.
• If using a gas stove-top or grill: Prepare graham crackers near the stove top, place a marshmallow on a fork (you can use your tree branch or marshmallow roasting sticks) turn on flame to highest setting and let the marshmallow brown, being careful not to let it catch fire. place the browned marshmallow on 1/2 graham cracker and place Reese's cup on top, with the other 1/2 of graham. Lightly push down on to flatten the marshmallow.
