CupsSHOULDNOTbe more than 1/2-2/3 of the way full. Bake for about 15 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. 4. Some of the cupcakes may sink in just a bit in the middle. That is fine, you will be covering them with frosting. Frosting: 1. In the bowl of a mixer, beat butter, cream, and vanilla on medium speed until smooth and blended. Add powdered sugar and cocoa powder and beat on low until just mixed. Pour in chocolate syrup and beat on high for 2 minutes. 2. Frost cupcakes and top with marshmallows.
