Cue JAWS music…
When deciding what to take for our Jimmy Buffett tailgating experience, I of course thought of making cupcakes! I made the Margarita cupcakes but also wanted something more traditional… I saw a picture of some beach and shark cupcakes and thought they were really cute and very fitting.
As usual, when I make more than 1 kind of recipe, I make one from scratch and one from a box. I made the margarita cupcakes from scratch and used the WW Diet Coke method on these babies.
1 box cake mix – I used Devil’s Food
1 can of diet coke – any variety will do – I used Diet Dr Pepper
1 egg white (to help hold it all together)
Follow directions on box for cake or cupcakes except use only ingredients listed above.
I used store bought frosting that and dyed it blue.

Yum! They look really good. But I do not like marshmallow fluff. To me, it doesn’t even really taste like marshmallow, and has a weird chemical taste. Nast.
Have you ever tried these ones? REAL marshmallows! ๐ Maybe there is a way to combine your recipe (the cookie part) with this?
Wow, those look awesome!
I love s’mores!
I’ve made these several times and I’d have to say they’re my favorite “s’mores” dessert!

You’ve got me wanting to pop a couple grahams, chocolate, and marshmallows into my toaster over for a quick fix. These look really good. I don’t think marshmallow fluff exists here in Central America, but these bars look sensational.
oh yum! count me in for this one for sure!! I could go for a nice campfire too right about now ๐
Oh my goodness! These look awesome….yum!
Those look great! Would you believe I never had “true” s’mores (with toasted marshmallows) until this year?!?!
