Gluten Free S'mores Cupcakes

Campfire nostalgia meets bakery-worthy elegance in these rich, chocolatey cupcakes that make 12 showstopping servings. Each one starts with a buttery gluten free graham cracker crust pressed right into the liner, so you get that classic s'mores crunch baked into the foundation before the chocolate batter even hits the pan. The deep cocoa flavor comes from a well-balanced blend of gluten free flour, cocoa powder, and a splash of hot water that keeps the crumb tender and moist — none of that gummy, dense texture that can plague wheat-free baking. On top, a silky Swiss meringue frosting is made from scratch by heating egg whites and sugar to 160°F before whipping them into glossy, stiff peaks, which means it's naturally free of any flour or gluten-containing thickeners. The finishing touch is a kitchen torch (or a quick pass under the broiler) that toasts the meringue into golden, lightly charred swirls that smell exactly like a marshmallow held over a fire. A scatter of crushed graham crackers and chopped dark chocolate over the top ties the whole thing together visually and flavor-wise. These are the kind of cupcakes that make people ask for the recipe before they've even finished their first bite.
