Simple S'more Cupcakes

So a couple of months ago I was at my grandmothers house and I was really craving s'mores. Unfortunately, she didn't have any chocolate so I was left disappointed. Later on that night I was talking to her about it and she mentioned that maybe Nutella would work. When she said this it reminded me of a recipe I once saw of Nutella filled cupcakes. At this point I got excited and once again looked through her cupboards collecting all the things I needed. It wasn't much because I was trying to keep it quick and simple. Here what I used:

Graham Crackers
Nutella
Chocolate Cake Mix (and the ingredients it calls for)
Jumbo Marshmallows

I whipped up a quick batch of chocolate cake mix, poured it into cupcake liners and tossed them in the oven. I then took them out and cored them with a paring knife. I filled them with a decent amount of Nutella and crushed up Graham crackers. I used the piece I cored as a cap then topped them with a jumbo marshmallow. Then I tossed them back into the oven just long enough for the marshmallow to melt and get a slight roasted look to the top. About five minutes.



Unfortunately. I didn't take many pictures but they were delicious my cousins and my grandparents loved them. They're best warm but still work cold. I personally nuked them in the microwave for about 10 seconds to get the marshmallow nice and gooey again after they'd gotten cold. It was a quick and delicious treat that my whole family enjoyed. Maybe one night when I have more time I can make this recipe even better and actually make the cupcakes from scratch.
