Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 12 cup muffin pans or line with 20 paper baking cups.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Mix in the eggs, buttermilk, red food coloring and vanilla. Stir in the baking soda and vinegar. Combine the flour, cocoa powder and salt; stir into the batter just until blended. Spoon the batter into the prepared cups, dividing evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan set over a wire rack. When cool, arrange the cupcakes on a serving platter and frost with desired frosting.

If yours turned out dry, sub the butter with oil. Any red velvet cake recipe requires TWO ounces of red food coloring. You will notice the vibrancy in color.

Don't panic when your batter gets all lumpy after the buttermilk goes in like I did! Persevere, and after the flour is added, the batter will (should!) become smooth. Tastes great and would reco...

These cupcakes were really good but what made them even better was piping on the White Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting from Red Velvet Cake IV. So delicious!!!!
