S'mores Cupcakes: And He's Finally Home!

In late August, Nate arrived home!  But, I was still making cupcakes.  These cupcakes were delicious, but I would never make them again!  The cupcakes have a graham cracker crust topped with marshmallows, chocolate chips, and chocolate cocoa cake.  Then you come to this horrible frosting!  This was my first egg white frosting and the first one was a complete flop!  It was midnight, and I was baking these cupcakes for the boat picnic, I was beyond frustrated.  As I began to cry, Nate stepped up to save the day.  He made the second frosting slow and steady, and it turned out perfectly.  I would never make these cupcakes without Nate, he also torched the tops with a blow torch.  Finally, we hit the sack at 2am.  Cupcakes are the only things that can keep me up that late!
