Amazing Red Velvet Cupcakes

February 05, 2015

Here is my favorite recipe for RED VELVET CUPCAKES: (It is similar to Paula Deen’s recipe, with a few changes I made). The cake is dense, which I like.

2 1/2 C. flour

1 1/2 C. sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

2-3 T. cocoa powder

1 C. vegetable oil

1 1/2 cup buttermilk (room temperature)

2 large eggs

3+ T. red food coloring (depending on how deep of a red you want)

1 t. white distilled vinegar

1 t. vanilla extract

Combine dry ingredients in bowl. In a separate bowl, combine oil, buttermilk, eggs, vinegar, food coloring, and vanilla. Mix the dry and the wet ingredients together. I use my KitchenAid Stand...
