3 years agomy red velvet cupcake recipe:
2 1/4c flour
1tsp salt
2 (1oz) bottles of red food coloring
3tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1c buttermilk
1tsp vanilla
1 1/2c butter, softened
2 eggs
1tsp vinegar
1tsp baking soda
frosting (you can buy or make your own)
preheat oven to 350…mix flour and salt in a bowl (i usually sift the flour too)…in another bowl slowly stir food coloring into cocoa until blended & smooth…in yet another bowl (i know a lot to wash after) mix buttermilk and vanilla…
beat sugar and butter (i usually use my kitchenaid artisan mixer, but a hand mixer works just as well) in a large bowl until light & fluffy…add eggs one at a time, continue mixing…add cocoa mixture, beat until well blended…alternate adding flour mixture and buttermilk mixture until blended…
combine vinegar and baking soda (yay a volcano) in a small bowl…fold into mixture with a spatula, not a blender…spoon into cupcake pan about 2/3 full…bake about 20 mins…cool…and then frost once cool…you can add decoration to the top to if you want…
