    03 Method
    • Step 1
      Line muffin tin with paper liners. Heat oven to 350*F. In a large mixing bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
    • Step 2
      Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla. Beat on medium speed for one minute. Stir in boiling water (the batter will be thin, don’t worry, this is right).
    • Step 3
      Fill liners 2/3 full with batter. (I usually put the batter into a large measuring cup with a pour spout, and then pour the batter into the liners.)
    • Step 4
      Bake cupcakes for approximately 22-24 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
    • Step 5
      In a large heatproof bowl (the metal bowl of your electric mixer), combine the egg whites, sugar, water, corn syrup, cream of tartar and salt.
    • Step 6
      Set the bowl over (but not touching) simmering water in a saucepan and heat mixture, stirring constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is very warm to the touch (about 160*F), about 3 minutes.
    • Step 7
      Remove the bowl from the saucepan. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium-high speed, about 2 minutes.
    • Step 8
      In a small bowl, microwave 1 cup mini marshmallows 30 seconds to 1 minute, until puffed, and starting to melt.
    • Step 9
      Add marshmallows to the mixture in electric mixer, reduce speed to low and add vanilla. Continue beating (on low) until the marshmallows are melted and the frosting is completely smooth (about 3-4 minutes). Use frosting right away.
