I want S'mores!

I should have posted this earlier but my car needs my attention first- if only it could scream............pleeeease.... I need a bath lol... anyway, he's all shiny and spotless again so I can now talk about this yummy cupcake. I haven't made this cupcake for the longest and if my cousin didn't bring home some yesterday, I will not remember. I've made changes on the original recipe which was too sweet when I followed it the first time and the cupcake is a bit dry. This one is just right- the cupcakes are moist because I used buttermilk instead of regular milk and decreased the sugar because the marshmallow cream is already sweet and so are the chocolate squares and graham crackers and crumb toppings. Go slow in adding the confectioner's sugar as well and just stop adding when the level of sweetness is achieved without using up all of 2 cups.
