Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, finely crushed about 8 graham crackers
  • 6 Tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup chocolate chips semisweet or milk
  • 11/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 12 large marshmallows cut in half. Or a sprinkling of 3-4 mini marshmallows per mini cupcakes, which would be about 96 total.

Instructions
 

Make Graham Cracker Crust

  • In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined.
  • Press about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into each mini cupcake liner (use a mini muffin tin for structure).
  • Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes while you prepare the filling.

Make the Chocolate Ganache Filling

  • Heat the heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl until hot in 20-30 second increments. Stir well after each round in the microwave. 
  • Keep doing this until the chocolate forms a smooth ganache (I only had to microwave my chocolate and cream once for 30 seconds, but it depends on your microwave how long it can take)
  • Spoon the chocolate mixture over the chilled crusts, filling each liner almost to the top.
  • Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to set.

Add Marshmallows and Toasts

  • Cut your large marshmallows in half if you didn't already
  • Once the chocolate is firm, place a marshmallow half (or 3-4 mini marshmallows) on top of each cupcake
  • Use a kitchen torch to lightly toast the marshmallows until golden brown. (If you don’t have a torch, you can broil on high them for 3-4 minutes in the oven, but keep a close eye on them and check every minute or so!)
  • Gently run a butter knife around the edges of your mini cupcakes to remove them from the pan and enjoy.
