Pumpkin S'more Cupcakes - a pumpkin cupcake with a graham cracker crust topped with chocolate frosting

Hey!! It’s Doree here from Top Notch Mom and Designs by Doree sharing my Pumpkin S’mores Cupcakes. I’m so excited to be back here at Mom’s Test Kitchen! It has been way too long.

Fall and all things pumpkin are my absolute favorite. I don’t know about you, but I’ve been noticing lots of fall decorations as I drive through my neighborhood. I’ve had a hard time getting into the “fall spirit” because the weather here in Maryland has been hot and in the 80’s. Today was the first cool day we’ve had in a while so I felt inspired to make and share my Pumpkin S’mores Cupcakes with you. I hope you like them! You can get creative with them and top them with crushed graham cracker or even a toasted marshmallow.
