Red Velvet Cupcake With Cream Cheese Frosting

Hi everyone!

Today I wanna share this recipe I got from a workshop I attended years ago. It was a small class of people trying to learn how to bake cupcakes.

My best friend and I saw this workshop online and we decided to sign up to attend the Saturday class.

I don't know about you, but I'm not a fan of food coloring. I think it's weird to eat red bread/cake. However, my younger brother loves red velvet so I made this especially for him.

cake flour 2 1/2 cups

white sugar 1 1/2 cups

baking soda 1 tsp

salt 1 tsp

cocoa powder 1 tsp

evaporated milk 1 cup

eggs 2 pcs

vinegar 2 tsp

vegetable oil 1 1/2 cups

red food coloring 2 tbsp

vanilla extract 1 tsp

1. Sift together the dry ingredients: cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder.
2. Get another bowl for wet ingredients. Whisk together eggs, oil, milk, vinegar, food color, and vanilla until incorporated.
3. Using a hand whisk, mix together wet ingredients to the dry ingredients by "well method", until smooth and no lumps are visible.

Transfer to muffins cups about 3/4 full, you don't wanna fill it up all the way because the mixture will puff.

Bake at 350 F (180 C) for about 20-25 minutes or until the toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Now that our cupcakes are almost ready, set it aside to cool off before you apply the cream cheese frosting.

Here are the ingredients:

butter 1 cup

icing sugar 1 cup

cream cheese 1 bar

vanilla extract 1 tsp

almond extract 1/2 tsp

1. Bring ingredients to room temp.
2. Put everything in a food processor and mix until smooth.
3. Transfer to bowl and chill until set.
4. Using a paddle attachment, set cream icing at medium speed until soft peaks form.

I can't really enjoy the fruit of my labor since I don't eat red cakes. So I brought it home to my brother and he enjoyed it a lot!

Hope you guys like this recipe!
