Ingredients
Graham Cracker Crust
12 full sheets honey graham crafters
1/3 cup coconut oil
Brownie
2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 cup dark chocolate cocoa powder
1/2 cup white all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp sea salt
Topping
12 squares Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate
2 cups mini marshmallow
Instructions
Graham Cracker Crust
Pre-heat oven to 350°F
Add the graham crackers and 1/3 cup coconut oil to the bowl of your food processor
Process on high until the mixture starts to form together
Line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners
Press the graham cracker mixture into each lining, filling it about 1/4 of the way full
Bake for 5 minutes
Bronwies
Melt unsweetened chocolate and coconut oil together (in the microwave on defrost, stirring every 30 seconds until completely melted – about 2 minutes)
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with blade attachment, add melted coconut oil and chocolate mixture
Add white and brown sugar, mix until fully combined
Add eggs 1 at a time, mix
Mix in vanilla extract
In a small bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, baking soda and sea salt
Slowly add dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mix until fully combined
Once the graham cracker crust is removed from the oven, top with brownie mixture, filling each cupcake liner to just below the top rim*
Bake for 14-16 minutes until brownie is set
Immediately top each brownie with a square of Ghirardelli dark chocolate, it will begin to melt and drop into the brownies creating a little dip for the marshmallows to sit in and the chocolate will help the mini marshmallows to stick to the top of the brownie.
Add 10-15 mini marshmallows on top of each brownie
Using a kitchen blow torch**, torch the marshmallows until toasted to your liking
Cool the cupcakes completely before trying to remove the lining
Serve at room temperature
Notes
*If you do not have a blow torch you can toasted the marshmallows by putting the tin of brownies back in the oven on broil, keep the oven door open so you can keep your eye on them and make sure the brownies do not burn.
