Directions

75 min.
1. Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake papers.

2. Step

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.

3. Step

In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar and oil together. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

4. Step

In another bowl, mix together buttermilk, red food coloring, and vanilla extract.

5. Step

Gradually mix the dry mixture into the oil and sugar, followed by the buttermilk mixture, beating until just combined.

6. Step

Stir vinegar and baking soda in a small bowl. Add this to the cake batter and stir well to combine.

7. Step

Fill cupcake papers 2/3 full with the batter. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Step

While the cupcakes cool, prepare the frosting. Beat cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy. Stir in vanilla extract and slowly add in powdered sugar on low speed until incorporated. Increase speed to high and beat until light and fluffy.

9. Step

Once the cupcakes have completely cooled, frost them generously with cream cheese frosting.
