How do you store these?
Hi Jessica, I would store them at room temperature in an airtight container.
What method did you use to put the icing on in the pictures? It doesn’t look piped because there are no “stripes”. Does it settle that nicely?
Hi Jina, I used an open or round piping tip with no lines.
Do these freeze well?
Hi Breanne, Yes the cupcakes will freeze, I recommend waiting to add the marshmallow topping.
Yum Yum YUM! I love this recipe!!!
We don’t have marshmallow cream in Australia. What could be substituted?

Hi! Excited to make these for my sister in laws baby shower next weekend. Question: approx how much graham cracker mix should go in the bottom of each cupcake liner? Thanks!!
Hi Rachel, What a great cupcake for a baby shower! I would add one tablespoon of graham cracker to each cupcake liner. Have Fun!
Thanks so much!
When you write butter, do you mean salted butter? I see for the cakes you write unsalted but then for frostings you only write butter. Just want to clarify. Thanks!
Hi Gina, I always use unsalted butter. ♥
Thanks! I ended up using salted butter for the frosting. I substituted the cake box mix with your devils food cake recipe. The combination of the Graham cracker, devils food cake, and marshmallow frosting is delicious!! Everyone at the party loved them. 🙂 you are my go to for cupcake recipes.
That’s amazing Gina! I’m so happy everyone loved them!
Can you “toast” the marshmallow frosting with a torch?
No I don’t think so Michele. It’s an actual frosting not meringue or marshmallow.
Do you spray the liners with non stick spray (is it meant for the bottom part so the graham doesn’t stick/crumble?) Or it’s either the liners or the spray? Thank you,
Hi Iris, Spray the liners. before filling with the graham cracker bottom layer.
