So I made my own. I improvised, and so far...they seem to be a hit.
I lined the bottom of the muffin cups with crushed graham crackers that were combined with melted butter. Topped that with Chocolate cake mix. I stuffed some marshmallows in the mix, which all came to the top during baking, weird. Then I made Marshmallow Frosting and toasted it under the broiler.
Now, I had hoped to have a pretty swirl of marshmallow goodness on top, with a piece of graham cracker and chocolate drizzle. That didn't happen.
The recipe I had for the Marshmallow Frosting, well, didn't work. Or I messed up. But it said after 7 minutes of mixing in a double broiler (or a pan and glass bowl) that stiff peaks would form, well 20 minutes later, no peaks. And one sore hand and wrist. So I said, oh well. I globed the non-stiff frosting on top of the cupcakes and toasted away. I must say, now they look like messy S'mores not the perfect cupcake I had in my head.
But who says that the look effects the taste? Because here at work, they are flying off the plate. I love making people happy.
egg whites won't peak if your bowl had any oil in it (: I'm not sure what your recipe was though.
ReplyDeleteNo oil...but egg whites. It was frustrating. I will have to find a different recipe for this one. But they were good despite the frosting. :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the pictures and I have been wanting to give marshmallow frosting a go...
ReplyDeleteHope mine comes out ok!
