Recipe of the Week - Easy Red Velvet Cupcakes

Week 18

Easy Red Velvet Cupcakes

It is almost holiday time and everyone is busy.  Betty Crocker Recipes has an easy red velvet cupcake recipe that will save time and is dee-lish!  Of course it goes without saying that you are going to put a good ole southern cream cheese frosting on these. 


 
1 box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® German chocolate cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 bottle (1 oz) red food color (I use 1/2 tsp. of the Wilton red "no taste" coloring) 
1 tablespoon unsweetened baking cocoa

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans) and prepare cupcake liners.

Beat all cake ingredients with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Fill liners 1/2 full.  Bake as directed on box for cupcakes.
