Preparation

1. . Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit & line 1 and half cupcake pans (the recipe makes 18 cupcakes)

2. Using a food processor, grind the graham crackers. 

3. Pour graham cracker crumbs into a medium bowl, then add the melted butter and sugar. Stir until combined

4. Spoon about 2 Tablespoons of graham cracker crust into each cupcake liner, or as much as desired. Make sure it is pressed firmly into the liner. Set aside

5. Making the cupcake batter. Melt the butter in a  microwave safe bowl (ex. glass liquid measuring cup) in 30-second increments, stopping after each one to stir until melted and smooth

6. Pour the melted butter and chocolate mixture into a large bowl. Then whisk in the granulated sugar.

7. Let it cool for 5 minutes before adding the eggs so you do not cook them. Then add the vanilla extract, flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk together. (Batter will be thick!)

8. Spoon the batter evenly into each cupcake liner, filling almost to the top of the liners.

9. Bake for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs. Make sure to check on them after 22 minutes in the oven

10.  Remove from oven and allow to completely cool in pans
