Step by step how to cook Red Velvet Cupcakes & Cream Cheese Topping:
- Beat eggs, oil, buttermilk, vinegar, vanilla extract and food colouring until combined..
- Add sifted flour, bicarbonate of soda, cocoa, as well as salt and sugar..
- Spoon mixture into cupcake holders. (Tip: use a measuring cup in order to get the cupcakes to be equal sizes, I use a 1/4 cup).
- Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes. (However every oven works slightly differently so I suggest checking on them after 15 minutes as you don't want to dry them out and 5 minutes can make a big difference).
- Remove cupcakes from the oven and leave to cool completely before putting topping on..
- Place all ingredients for the cream cheese topping in an electric mixer and mix until well combined. It should be an off white colour with a light and fluffy texture..
- Put topping on cooled cupcakes and enjoy.
