Time 2h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups cake flour
1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ounces red food coloring
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
¼ cup all purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 cup white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 2 9-inch cake pans. In a bowl, sift together the cake flour, chocolate pudding mix, cocoa powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat 1/2 cup of butter with 1 1/2 cup of sugar with an electric mixer until creamy; beat the eggs in, one at a time, and beat until the mixture is fluffy, about 1 minute. Beat in the flour mixture, alternating with buttermilk, in several additions. Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and the red food color until the batter is uniformly colored. In a bowl, stir the baking soda with vinegar, and gently fold the foamy mixture gently into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean or with moist crumbs, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
  • For frosting, place all-purpose flour in a saucepan, and gradually whisk milk into the flour, about 2 tablespoons at a time, until smoothly combined. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat, whisking constantly until thickened and smooth; allow to cool completely. Beat 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 1 minute, and gradually beat in the cooled milk mixture; add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat the frosting until fluffy and spreadable, 1 to 2 more minutes.

Time 2h55m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup shortening
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 ounce red food coloring
2 ¼ cups self-rising flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10 inch cake pans.
  • Beat the shortening and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Room-temperature eggs should be added one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the shortening mixture before adding the next. Mix the cocoa and red food coloring in a separate bowl and stir into the shortening mixture. Combine the flour and salt. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing until just incorporated. Stir in vanilla extract. In another separate bowl, mix the vinegar and baking soda. Fold in the vinegar mixture while fizzing; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
  • To make frosting: Cream together margarine and confectioner's sugar, then add vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy. Frost cooled cake and sprinkle with walnuts.

Tips:

  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help ensure the batter is smooth and well-combined.
  • Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor. Look for a cocoa powder that is labeled "unsweetened" or "natural."
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixed batter can result in tough, dry cupcakes.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaked cupcakes will be dry and crumbly.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
  • For the best results, use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the frosting until it is light and fluffy.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to spread the frosting onto the cupcakes.

Conclusion:

These moist and delicious red velvet cupcakes are the perfect treat for any occasion. With their vibrant red color and decadent cream cheese frosting, they are sure to be a hit. Follow these tips to ensure your cupcakes turn out perfectly every time.
