Strawberry Banana Pudding Cupcakes

Strawberry Banana Pudding Cupcakes combine all the best flavors in a memorable and handheld dessert.

Have we ever figured out why all of the cupcakes in the universe aren’t filled? Filled cupcakes are infinitely better than not-filled, this is a well-known fact. So why are we even wasting our time? Sometimes I really don’t understand this crazy world we live in.

Sometimes when I’m at the store I look at Oreos and wonder why they even make the regular ones anymore. Don’t people only buy the Double Stuf? Why wouldn’t they? And what about donuts with a hole in the middle instead of jelly or cream — why are those still a thing? How are we supposed to evolve as a society if we keep selling people holes of air?

Surely if we all put our heads together we can figure this out. Maybe appoint a special committee or something, idk idk.

Our summer here in Arkansas has been particularly mild so far (knock on wood, good grief I probably shouldn’t have mentioned it) and we’ve been enjoying lots of lazy evenings outside around the fire pit. My backyard is my favorite place to be, and we love to sit around and chat while we roast marshmallows and make s’mores. I keep a stockpile of all the fixings in a large container so we can just whip it out on a whim — seriously, do it. You’ll never regret having a one-stop-s’mores-stock. You’re welcome.

Lately we are loving these Campfire Strawberry & Banana Roasters. The flatter shape is PERFECT for s’mores and you really haven’t lived until you’ve had a Ritz cracker/toasted banana roaster/milk chocolate filled with caramel s’more. Trust me, these fun and festive Campfire marshmallows are changing the s’mores game and I am HERE. FOR. IT.

I decided to whip up a cupcake inspired by our current favorite roasting marshmallows. Banana pudding cupcakes are kind of my favorite, so I thought I’d gild the lily by topping them with a whipped strawberry buttercream and a Strawberry Banana Roaster dipped in white chocolate and crushed vanilla wafers.

These babies check off all the boxes. If they were on cupcake Tinder, you’d be swiping way right.

Not that I have Tinder experience. But a girl hears things.
