Preparation
Step 1Preheat oven to 350° and line two 12-cup cupcake pans with cupcake liners.Step 2Prepare Devil’s Food cake mix according to package instructions. Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with batter and bake until a toothpick inserted into each cupcake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes. Step 3Using a teaspoon, scoop a small well out of each cupcake. Reserve cupcake crumbs for garnish. Place a marshmallow into each well and bake until the marshmallow puffs, about 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.Step 4Make chocolate frosting: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Beat in heavy cream (adding more by the tablespoon until consistency is creamy but can hold peaks). Step 5Pipe frosting onto cupcakes. Sprinkle cupcake crumbs on top and serve.
