Campfire Cupcakes!


I was browsing through my new baking book when I saw this adorable cupcake recipe. Seeing that it has been quite sunny for these few days, campfire cupcakes seem to be a good item to bake.

Why these cupcakes are called campfire cupcakes is because the topping is made of melted marshmellows like how one would grill marshmellows over a fire at summer camp. The cupcakes are a simple chocolate cupcake recipe with chocolate chips and the topping is made by spreading mini marshmellows on top of the cooked cupcakes and then grilling them for 30 secs until they brown and melt slightly. Using a mix of orange, pink and white marshmellows is also a good constrast with the chocolate, making the cupcakes look rather sweet.

Feedback has been pretty good from my other tasters but the Husband found them a bit bland and would prefer them with proper icing. Oh well, you can't please everyone! :)
