S'more Cupcakes

This is another cupcake recipe from Martha's Cupcake book:  s'more cupcakes.  I had tried to make this before, except I realized that there would be too much lag-time between baking them and eating them, and the frosting would have hardened, so I used bananas on top instead.  But this time I was ready to go - or so I thought.

The cupcakes are made with graham cracker flour and cinnamon to produce a graham cracker-flavored cupcake.  Chocolate ganache on top, and then homemade marshmallow fluff.


The idea is to toast these with a kitchen torch, which I was really excited to use.  The only problem is that my kitchen torch didn't come with gas, so I just poofed them under the broiler and called it a day.  They were still really good.  (But it is another instance of me not being fully prepared in the kitchen.)

I've got to get a gas cartridge and then I can do something with the torch; I'm thinking chocolate creme brulee.  (Now to find a chocolate creme brulee recipe.)
