Pink velvet cupcakes

So if this valentine you are single and there is no one to gift you such scrumptious cup cakes then you are at the right place.

So my dad had bought some of these delicious cup cakes last year and they were so tasty. They were irresistible.

So this summer holidays, why not try baking some☺☺

So lets start now

Remember, Valentine’s Day is just another day to take time from our busy schedules to express our love for those people in our lives that are worth loving. And hope that we will remember to keep loving them all year long.

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CUPCAKES:

• 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ teaspoon baking powder
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2-3 drops pink food coloring
• 2 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ½ cup buttermilk, room temperature
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
• The frosting used was readymade

For the Cupcakes

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line cupcake tins with liners and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
3. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy on medium speed, about 3 minutes. Beat in the food coloring. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well before each addition. Scrape bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla extract.
4. Reduce the speed to low and slowly alternate the dry ingredients with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. In a separate small bowl, combine the baking soda and vinegar. It will fizzle. Mix into the batter until combined.
5. Divide batter into prepared baking liners. Bake for 12 – 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

This is actually the second time i tried making them since the first time i added too much food colour and it turned out red.
