♡♡♡ THE RECIPE! ♡♡♡
Red Velvet Cupcakes

Yield: 12 cupcakes

Ingredients

Cupcakes:
1 1/4 (140g) cup cake flour
1 tablespoon (10g) unsweetened natural cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (144g) granulated white sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg, room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 tablespoon (.5oz) red food coloring
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon white vinegar

Cream Cheese Frosting:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
4oz cream cheese (1/2 an 8oz block), room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups (1/2lb) powdered sugar, sifted

Directions

For the cupcakes:
Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a cupcake pan with baking cups.

In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside. With an electric mixer, beat together the sugar, oil and egg on medium-high speed about 2 minutes until pale and fluffy. Beat in sour cream, food coloring, vanilla and vinegar. Slowly add flour mixture, on low speed, until just incorporated.

Distribute the batter between the baking cups, filling about 3/4 full. Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. (About 10 minutes for mini cupcakes). Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.


For the frosting:
With an electric mixer, beat butter on medium speed until smooth. Beat in cream cheese (make sure they are both at room temperature so you do not get lumps in your frosting). Add vanilla and salt. Gradually beat in powdered sugar until incorporated. Beat on medium speed for about 3 minutes, until smooth and creamy. Pipe or spread on top of cooled cupcakes.
