Categories     dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 tablespoons red food coloring
2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1 pound cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
5 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/4 cup cocoa powder, sifted
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 drop red food coloring
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 muffin tins with cupcake liners.
  • Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat together the granulated sugar, oil and eggs until completely combined and fluffy. Stir in the food coloring, vinegar and vanilla. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet, alternating in batches with the buttermilk, until completely combined.
  • Scoop the batter into the liners, filling them about two-thirds of the way full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Set on a wire baking rack to cool completely.
  • For the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until fluffy and combined, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the confectioners' sugar and beat until combined. Remove 1/2 cup of frosting to a piping bag with a small round tip or a ziptop bag. Add the cocoa powder, melted chocolate, vanilla, food coloring and salt to the remaining frosting and beat until completely combined.
  • Using an offset spatula or butter knife, spread the chocolate frosting onto the cupcakes in an even layer, as flat as possible. Next, use the white frosting to pipe stitching onto each cupcake, one 2-inch line with 3 small cross-stitches. Serve on a green platter (for grass)!

BOBBY FLAY THROWDOWN RED VELVET CUPCAKES AND CREAM CHEESE ICING



Bobby Flay Throwdown Red Velvet Cupcakes and Cream Cheese Icing image

I saw this recipe on the Food Network show Bobby Flay Throwdown. He challenged a lady who has a cupcake store. This is the recipe she uses and says she sells the most of. You want to make these huge. She makes them to feed 2 people. Opening them up and cutting them in half like a regular cake. The icing recipe makes alot,,,but plan to use a heaping scoop on top of the cupcake. Since you cut it in half and eat it with a fork every forkful can dip into the icing. I double the cocoa amount for more flavor. Also,,it calls for 2 tbs of red food coloring, it does make it very red,,but even 1 tbs will make it red enough.
