It's almost Pentecost and that's why I want to tell you something nice. Did you know that the color of Pentecost is red? I had never heard of that. For that reason we have made a number of nice videos in the theme “red”. This is how we baked delicious red velvet cupcakes. And of course there is a super colorful video with this recipe cupcake cupcakes.
Red velvet is a classic cake known for its soft texture, rich flavor and striking red color. The cake is lightly sweetened and often has a subtle hint of chocolate due to the addition of cocoa. Traditionally, red velvet cake is served with a creamy cream cheese frosting. The red color is often achieved using food coloring or natural dyes such as beetroot juice.
And this is how you make the red velvet cupcakes:
-First preheat your oven to 175 degrees
-Take and come and add the sugar, the eggs, the salt and the sachet of vanilla sugar first. Beat with a mixer until it is foamy. About 3 minutes.
-Then add the melted butter, the low-fat yogurt and mix this through. With a teaspoon you remove 1 teaspoon of red coloring paste from the jar. If it isn't red enough to your liking, you can always add a little more. Mix the coloring paste through the batter until you have a nice red batter.
-Then add the cocoa powder and flour little by little, but do this on a low setting otherwise everything will dust out of the bowl.
-Take a bowl and put the backing soda in it, pour in the teaspoon of vinegar, it will foam very much. Then add this to the batter with a spatula, do not use the mixer anymore!
-Fill the molds with cupcake molds last and spoon the batter into them until they are 2/3 full. Place in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until cooked through.
To make the frosting for the Red Velvet cupcakes:
While the cupcakes are baking we will make the frosting.
-Take the clean mixer and a large bowl. Add the cream cheese and butter (it should be at room temperature). Mix this until it is a nice whole.
-Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to this cupcake recipe and slowly sprinkle in all the icing sugar. Mix this on a low setting otherwise you will be completely covered in sugar. Then increase the setting until you have a nice frosting. Place this in the piping bag and then store it in the refrigerator until ready to use.
-When the cupcakes are ready, let them cool for a while. Finally, take the frosting out of the refrigerator and pipe a nice swirl on the cakes and sprinkle some nice sprinkles over it
Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.
