The Ultimate S'more Cupcake



I am so excited to share this cupcake recipe with you guys!I felt like such a kid today while making these cupcakes. There not exactly the classic s'more, I've always been fascinated by odd combinations that work great together, and this cupcake is the perfect example. I added a bit of cayenne pepper for that little hint of spice, and coffee to enhance the luscious chocolate and I also went over the edge and added coconut flakes and cream all throughout the cupcake including the crust making these babies THE ULTIMATE S'MORE CUPCAKE! Fire up your ovens and lets get baking! :)


{For the crust}
  • 1 1/2 cups finely crushed graham crackers 
  • 1/3 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup coconut flakes  
  • 2 tablespoon coconut oil melted 
  • 2 tablespoon coconut cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line your cupcake tin with liners. Mix all of the crust ingredients together till it feels like wet sand and place one tablespoon or so in your paper liners, and press them down. I used nut cups from bakeitpretty. Bake the crust for six minutes. remove from oven, set aside.

Step.3
Spoon a third of the way up the liners and bake for 18 to 20 minutes. let them cool.


{For the filling}
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips melted
  • 4 tablespoons coconut cream 
Mix till well combined. Core the center of each cupcake and fill them with one table spoon each.
