Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner.

Notes

  • For best results, let the cupcakes chill in the refrigerator after baking for a few hours.
  • Experiment with different flavors of extracts for a unique twist.
