This is what you'll need...

For the graham cracker crust:
- cupcake liners of your choosing
- 1-3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 1-1/2 sleeves)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
- 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
-  mini marshmallows

For the cake batter:
- 1 box of Pillsbury Moist Deluxe French Vanilla cake mix, or another mix of your choice, plus ingredients listed on box
- 1 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips

For the toppings:
- remaining amount of semi-sweet mini chocolate chips from a 12-ounce bag
- mini marshmallows
- about 3 tsp. crushed graham crackers
- optional:  kitchen blow torch

For the cupcake toppers:
- sandwich toothpicks

Step 1: Make the graham cracker crust

Crush graham crackers in a food processor, so that you end up with finely chopped crumbs.  In a small bowl, mix together the crushed graham crackers, granulated sugar, & mini chocolate chips.  Add the melted unsalted butter, and mix well.  The consistency should be thick enough to stick together.

With a tablespoon, scoop rounded spoonfuls into each of the cupcake liners.  Firmly press the graham cracker crust flat.
