Directions

To make the honey graham cupcakes:

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line cupcake pans with papers.

  2. 2

    Place the cake flour, graham flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in the bowl of an electric mixer and stir together to combine.

  3. 3

    Add the butter, and mix on medium-low speed until the mixture resembles damp sand (about 1 minute).

  4. 4

    Mix in the eggs on medium-low speed, until smooth (about 1 minute).

  5. 5

    Add the sour cream, milk, honey, and vanilla, and mix on medium-high speed for about 2 to 3 minutes, to aerate the batter and build the cake's structure.

  6. 6

    Transfer the batter to the prepared pans and bake for 16 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the thickest part of a cupcake comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

  7. 7

    Cool completely, then fill with marshmallow and top with chocolate frosting.

  8. 8

    Garnish with micro-marshmallows.

To make the chocolate frosting:

  1. 1

    Place the butter, salt, and cocoa powder in a large mixing bowl, and add about 1/3 of the powdered sugar.

  2. 2

    With an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until combined.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining powdered sugar (in 2 more additions), beating until combined.

  4. 4

    Stir in the cream*** and vanilla, then turn the mixer up to medium-high speed and whip the frosting until light and fluffy.
