Here's the batter all mixed, looking scary and blood-red.

All ready for the oven.

And here they are all baked and frosted. I ended up nixing the cream cheese frosting I had made and using regular vanilla frosting instead because the cream cheese tasted really good but came out all clumpy and weird. I need an electric mixer.

I like the color of the cupcakes! I think I may try that soon....yeah right.....but it was nice thought for a second!
Oooo...love red velvet cupcakes! The bright red is lovely, I think, and fun. I made some at Christmas time, but the quality of the food coloring I used was not too good, unbeknownst at the time...so they looked like regular chocolate cupcakes--they tasted good though. LOL! Happy eating :o)
HMM, I'll mail you some :)
Tracy, that's so funny because I was afraid I didn't use enough food coloring and the cupcakes would turn out pink!
Yum. Cupcakes! I haven't been adventurous to try those yet. Just cookies and cakes. You'll have to share your favorite recipe!
M2A, I'll post the recipe I used on the blog at some point - it was a pretty good one.
