Amazing Cupcakes

I love magazines. I love going through each one I get and cutting out any great recipes, articles about cleaning a certain part of the house or organizing a party or budgeting... I was cruising the pages of January's bon appetit and came accross a recipe from Society Bakery in Dallas, Texas, for these S'mores Cupcakes. YOW! they're awesome--especially if you love bon fires for the sake of roasting marshmallows, as I do.

Now these beauties are fantastic, but not without a price: they take forever to make: the cake part is a basic muffin mix, essentially, but 3/4 of the flour has been replaced with graham cracker crumbs. After baking, you have to let them cool completely, then dig out a hole from the top, squeeze marshmallow creme into hole, cover with not-hot ganache...by then it's been 3 hours. My favorite part is topping each one with a hand-roasted, homemade marshmallow, lovingly created by me. I definately owe some to people, such as Laura, because it was her birthday yesterday. Sorry, I'm a slacker. But I'll get it done, hopefully by August (happy half birthday?).
