I've been asked to do S'mores Cupcakes -- something new for me. I found a recipe which sounds great, but it calls for a kitchen torch. I don't have one, so could I possibly just put the pan of cupcakes under the broiler for a minute, or would the paper liners catch on fire? TIA!!
I put mine under the broiler and worked fine, I used the foil liners though...you can see an example in my photos to give you an idea of how they came out. Hope that helps! Good luck!
I have a different smore's cupcake recipe that was AMAZING!! Truly, my hubby ate 18 in about 12 hours!
It was a gramm cracker cupcake, marshmallow filling, topped with a chocolate ganache topped with some crumbled gramm crackers.
Just an idea, then you dont have to worry about a torch. That being said, those torches are only about $30-40 and it is on the top of my wish list!!
Just a thought. Make sure your icing does not contain butter or you will have a gooey mess under the broiler. Don't ask me how I know. ![]()

Well, I'm happy to report that it worked!!! I was able to brown them under the broiler without setting off the smoke alarm.
In fact, I think I chickened out and pulled them a little too soon -- I could've let them get a little darker. I'd never eaten one before, and they're delicious!!! Here's the link: http://cakecentral.com/gallery/2069859
