S'mores cupcakes

Original recipe from Homemade by Holman
Oven temp = 350

Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham crackers (approx. 1 pkg out of the Honeymaid box)
1/4 cup sugar
5 Tbs unsalted butter, melted
2 oz bittersweet chocolate chips
Marshmallows (you'll need about 100 mini marshmallows)

In food processor, pulse graham crackers until they are fine crumbs. Add sugar and melted butter and mix until well combined. Add approximately 1 tablespoon of crumbs to the bottom of each liner. Use a small glass to press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of each liner. Bake for 5 minutes. Add approximately 4 marshmallows and 5 chocolate chipsto each tin.

Chocolate cupcakes:
2 cups plus 2 Tbs sugar
1 3/4 cups flour
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup canola oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup water

Cream together sugar, oil, and vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well between additions. Mix in the cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add 1 cup of flour and then the milk and mix. Add the remaining flour and the water and mix until just combined. Pour batter into prepared cupcake liners with crust and bake at 350 deg for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Top cupcakes with vanilla buttercream frosting or marshmallow frosting (7-minute frosting).
