Hope you guys like the video, and thanks for requesting it on Instagram! <\/p>\n<p>KITCHEN TOUR: http:\/\/bit.ly\/1qx5UHa<\/p>\n<p>I always love seeing what you guys are baking, so be sure to share your creations with me on my Facebook page (http:\/\/on.fb.me\/14LNQ1d) or Instagram @kawaiisweeteats with the hashtag #kawaiisweetworld!<\/p>\n<p>S\u2019mores Cupcakes<br \/>Makes 24 full size cupcakes or 48 minis<\/p>\n<p>Graham Cracker Crust <br \/>1 1\/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (9-10 graham crackers)<br \/>2 tablespoons granulated sugar <br \/>5 tablespoons butter, melted <\/p>\n<p>Directions:<br \/>In a large bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until evenly coated. For full size cupcakes, place a tablespoon sized scoop of the mixture in the bottom of each baking cup. For mini cupcakes, place 1 teaspoon. Using a glass or end of a rolling pin, press down the graham cracker crumbs until they form a solid crust.<br \/>Bake at 350 F for 5 minutes to allow the base to harden. Cool for 5-10 minutes before filling with cupcake batter.<\/p>\n<p>Chocolate Cupcake Batter (yields 18-24 cupcakes)<br \/>1 3\/4 cups all-purpose flour <br \/>1 1\/2 cups granulated sugar <br \/>3\/4 cup cocoa powder <br \/>2 teaspoons baking soda <br \/>1 teaspoon baking powder <br \/>Pinch of salt <br \/>2 eggs <br \/>1 cup strong black coffee (or 1 heaping tablespoon espresso powder dissolved in 1 cup water) <br \/>1 cup buttermilk <br \/>1\/2 cup vegetable oil <br \/>1 tablespoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n<p>Directions:<br \/>Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line cupcake tin with baking cups.<br \/>In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the eggs, coffee, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract and beat for 2-3 minutes on medium speed to mix. Batter will be liquidy.<br \/>Fill baking cups 2\/3 of the way full and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean with a few crumbs. Cool cupcakes to room temperature before frosting.<\/p>\n<p>Marshmallow Meringue <br \/>4 egg whites <br \/>1 cup granulated sugar<br \/>In a double boiler, whisk together the egg whites and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved and the egg whites are warm to the touch, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat, transfer to a medium mixing bowl, and beat the egg whites until they form stiff, shiny peaks, about 5-8 minutes. <\/p>\n<p>To Assemble<br \/>Fill a pastry bag with the marshmallow meringue and pipe the meringue on top of the cupcake. Alternatively, you may fill a large sealable plastic bag with the meringue, snip off the corner, and pipe it on top of the cupcakes. Using a kitchen torch, lightly toast the marshmallow meringue to resemble a toasted marshmallow. Alternatively, if a kitchen torch is not available, turn the oven onto broil and place the cupcakes on a cookie sheet in the top shelf of the oven. It will only take a minute or two to get a nice toasty marshmallow look, so watch them closely.<\/p>\n<p>Follow me on Instagram @kawaiisweeteats and share your creations with me with the hashtag #kawaiisweetworld (http:\/\/instagram.com\/kawaiisweeteats)<\/p>\n<p>Find me on Facebook and send me pictures of your kawaii treats and crafts: http:\/\/on.fb.me\/14LNQ1d<\/p>\n<p>Check out my channel: http:\/\/bit.ly\/18keK04<\/p>\n<p>Music courtesy of Audio Network &quot;Ray of Sunshine&quot;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[BotBan]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YAAAY first video in the new studio!!
