So I have been waiting to try this recipe I found from nibbledish.com and I finally decided to make it today. I think that it turned out pretty tastey. I didn't especially like the marshmallow frosting and it was super sticky and hard to work with, so I am not going to put that recipe up.
Ingredients for cupcakes:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
- 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Combine 1 cup of the graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup of melted butter. Scoop a tablespoon into each cupcake paper, pressing down to cover the bottom. Set aside.
- Beat 1/2 cup of butter on high speed until soft, about 30 seconds. Add in brown sugar. Beat on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, beat for 30 seconds after each . Set aside.
- Mix together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
- Add milk, vanilla, and flour mixture to the butter/sugar mixture. Beat to combine.
- Fill cupcake cups with cake batter (they should be 2/3 - 3/4 full).
- Place muffin tins on the middle rack of a preheated 350 degree oven. Bake for approximately 18-20 minutes, rotating pans halfway through. Cupcakes are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove cupcakes and let it cool down for 20 - 30 minutes.
- After the cupcakes have cooled, use a knife and cut a hole into the cupcakes (shaped like a cone). Fill with chocolate fudge filling .
- You might want to keep the top of the cupcake hold to over the fudge so the frosting doesn't sink in. Mine turned out looking like little mountains, but I think that's better than it sinking in.
Ingredients for fudge fillng:
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate, cut into pieces
- 1/2 tablespoon butter, at room temperature

cool and fill each cupcake with a spoonful of fudge
use the extra as decoration on top of the cupcake
They are really great! Messy delicious and fun, just the way food should be!
