Thank you Fiddlesticks!!
How did you get your seashells shiny? I think they are gorgeous!
I'm back from vacation! I came home to Mel's box of almond-buttercream scented goodness. The lotion is great. Not greasy or oily at all - I really like it! I have pictures of the purse cake and matching cupcakes I made for a 13th birthday that I'll post later.
ugghh! Got kicked off the watch list again!
Going to make smores cuppies today with the Grandkids. Nice cool rainy day to bake!
Hey Chass I painted them with super pear dust!
GrandmaG ..Im having the same kind of day here !

What mold did you use fiddle? I know wilton has one, but I'm really tired of their molds! I have been looking at some of the ones from countrysweetart.
soap molds work pretty well for chocolate.

Here are the S'mores cupcakes I made with the Grandkids. They were so good! They didn't last long.
Graham Cracker cake with milk chocolate filling and 7 minute marshmallow frosting.
Also made Chocolate Cherry topped with Bettercreme with Hershey's chocolate syrup and cherry fruit spread mixed in. Not bad but the cupcake was more of a brownie consistency. I added some cherry jello mix to it and I think that made it more chewy.
Yummmy! GrandmaG, They look pretty and really delicious! Im lovin those choc cherry ones !
Grandma, pretty classy photo of a s mores cupcakes, I have to say. The other ones are also beautiful. Question: I have to make watermelon margarita cupcakes for Monday. I can make watermelon ones by tinting a white cupcake a dark pink, adding mini chocolate chips and adding watermelon Jello and green icing. How do I get the margarita flavoring in them. Replace the water with the margarita mix? 1/2 water and 1/2 of the mix? Stumped. Thanks for any help.
Pat, the margarita mix doesn't quite put enough flavor in the cupcake. I would do full margarita mix for the liquid less about 1/4 cup. Add the rest with lime juice.
Sounds good. I've been wondering how to make a watermelon cupcake and the margarita sounds good. I have some watermelon Lorann flavoring and now I know what I'm going to use it in!
Also, there is a watermelon flavored yogurt now that you can add to your mix. 
GrandmaG--those cupcakes look soooo good!! Yum!!!
I LOVE that watermelon yogurt. Too bad it's a limited edition, and will be gone soon.
Those smore's cupcakes look delish, Grandma G. is it just a graham cracker WASC?

It's a graham cracker extended version. They are really good! I'm going to make the cinnamon roll and apple crisp this week end. I found some of that Smucker's apple cinnnamon topping and I want to try it in something!
Does anyone know how to make those little golf balls without the molds? I don't think I'm going to get my molds in time.
GrandmaG... Teekakes just made some out of fondant and posted a cake on here ..you might want to pm her an see what she did !
Thank you Fiddlesticks! I PM'd her. 
It really is a cute cake. I might have to use her idea some time!
Your Welcome! I hope the golf balls work for you!

It's really yummy! there are little pieces of apples in it! I put it in apple cupcakes!
Chass or someone tell me what a graham cracker extended version is and what are you talking about little pieces of apple ??? It all sounds so yummy! Im so out of it LOL!!
Fiddlesticks, Macsmom's recipe for S'mores cake but I always use the extened version. Works better for me than WASC.
Graham Cracker Cake (for S'mores) - MacsMom
2 boxes white cake mix
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup ground graham crackers
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 c honey (*suggested by fievel)
1 1/2 tsp salt
8 egg whites
2 2/3 cups water
4 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 cups (16oz carton) sour cream
4 teaspoon clear vanilla flavor or 3 tsp. vanilla bean paste & 1 tsp. vanilla flavor
*Filling: stir mini-marshmallows into the Truffle filling.
I used the honey and also some molasses in mine.
The apple bits are in the cinnamon apple ice cream syrup by Smuckers. It's a limited edition so I bought about 5 jars of it. I made some apple crisp cupcakes and made a french vanilla mousse and folded in a jar of it for filling and it is so good! Topped with a maple buttercream.
