While the cupcakes are baking and cooling, make the toasted marshmallow frosting: Add the butter to a large bowl. While whipping continuously with an electric hand mixer on medium-low speed, gradually add the powdered sugar, then the milk, until smooth.

Step 11

Remove the toasted marshmallows from the oven and immediately fold into the frosting. Let cool completely. If the frosting is still too soft to hold its shape once cooled, place in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours, until firm. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large round piping tip.

Gently insert the tip of the piping bag through the top of a cupcake into the center and pipe about 1 tablespoon of frosting inside. Then, frost the top of the cupcake and sprinkle with more graham cracker crumble. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes.
