Ingredients

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ yellow cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
4 bars (1.55 oz each) milk chocolate candy, finely chopped
1 jar (7 oz) marshmallow creme
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 to 2 teaspoons milk
1 bar (1.55 oz) milk chocolate candy, if desired
26 bear-shaped graham crackers, if desired

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Place paper baking cup in each of 26 regular-size muffin cups. Make cake batter as directed on box; fold in graham cracker crumbs and chopped chocolate bars. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
Bake 18 to 23 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
In large bowl, beat marshmallow creme, butter and powdered sugar on low speed until blended. Beat in enough milk, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, to make frosting spreadable. Spread over tops of cupcakes. Divide chocolate bar into rectangles. Cut each rectangle diagonally in half and place on top of each cupcake. Top each cupcake with bear-shaped cracker. After frosting has set, store loosely covered.
