In a large bowl, mix dry cake ingredients until combined

Add eggs, buttermilk, oil & vanilla. Mix until combined. Once combined, add coffee

Pour batter over graham cracker crust & bake for about 30 mins. Let cool completely

For buttercream, add butter, marshmallow & vanilla to a bowl. Beat until combined

Once fully combined, add powdered sugar on low speed. Scrape down sides of bowl & beat on med-high & mix for about one minute until light & fluffy

Assembling

Place layer of cake crust side down. Spread a layer of buttercream on top. Pipe a layer of buttercream around edge of cake & fill the middle with cooled ganache. Place cake in fridge until ganache has set

Once ganache is set, spread another layer of buttercream on top. Place second layer of cake on top, crust side down

Frost cake with remaining buttercream. Pour cooled ganache on top. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top. Place cake in fridge until ganache has set

Top cake with desire amount of marshmallows/ fluff & toast 😊

be very careful when removing cakes from pan after they have baked (I lost a layer 😭) it is also very important to let the ganache set up completely in fridge/freezer when assembling. & the buttercream recipe is only enough to fill cake & crumb coat so if you want more frosting I would double the recipe.
