EASY GLUTEN FREE RED VELVET CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Combine the first seven ingredients in a large mixing bowl at medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. (The remaining ingredients are for the frosting!).
• Once combined, spoon the mixture into muffin pans lined with cupcake liners. Bake for 16 - 20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean when you stick it in the center.
• Let the cupcakes cool in the pans for five minutes, then carefully remove them and place them on cooling racks.
• For the Frosting:.
• Beat the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until combined (but do not whip). Add salt.
• Gradually add powdered sugar with the mixer on slow until desired sweetness/texture.
• These cupcakes should be kept in the refrigerator if they aren't eaten within 12-24 hours due to the cream cheese frosting!
