Ingredients

Cupcake:

2- 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups sugar

1/2 cup baking cocoa (powdered)

1 teaspoon baking podwer

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 sticks butter, room temperature

5 large eggs

1 cup butermilk (*Note)

1 teaspoon vanilla ( I used Banana extract)

1 teaspoon red food coloring

Frosting:

1 package cream cheese, regular ( I used tofutti better than cream cheese)

1 stick of unsalted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract ( substituted Banana Extract for this)

4 cups confectioners' sugar

Directions

Cupcake Directions:

-Peheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare cupcake pans and spray with non-stick spray.

-Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in bixing bowl. Sift dry ingredients 3 times.

-Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

-Add eggs one at a time. making sure to beat well after each egg.

-Alternate adding 1/4 of the dry ingredients and approximately 1/4 of the buttermilk to the creamed mixture untill well mixed.

-Mix in vanilla and red food coloring.

-Fill lined cupcake pans 1/2 full of red velvet batter. Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of cupcake comes out clean.

-Cool cupcakes in pans for 5 to 10 minutes before transfering them to wire rack.

-Cool completely before frosting.

(*Note)

Substitute 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar in 1 cup measuring cup. Fill milk in measuring cup to the 1 cup line.

Let stand for 5 minutes.

On a personal note. I used white vinegar and organic soymilk. Mine came out a little dry. So you may need to readjust a bit.

Frosting Directions:

In a medium size bowl, beat cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until blended and smooth. With electric mixer on low speed, beat in 4 cups confectioners' sugar. ( I did this a 1 cup at a time)

Frosting can also be done in a food processor.

Makes 3 cups.
