Cupcakes: Sassy Red Velvet With Melted Cream Cheese On Top

Sometimes mood for baking cakes came from no where. Myself, I discovered came from colours, smells, craving, stressfullness, happiness, but only happens when the laziness disappeared.

For this time round, cos i love to play with colours, I choose red velvet to colour my day.

As usual, I will not choose tricky ingredients and method to assemble my experiment cupcake.

It is all simple and suitable for modern lady who has a busy work life and hunger with work life balance so called... ;) lol

Come and lets peep the ingredients:


Dry ingredients
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour (Tepung Serbaguna)
2 tbsp Cocoa Powder (Tepung Koko)
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt (Garam)
1/4 cup Unsalted Butter, softened at room temprature (ButterCup pada suhu bilik)
3/4 cup Granulated Sugar (Gula Halus)


Wet ingredients
3/4 cup Buttermilk (just change it to fresh full cream milk if you don't have buttermilk)
1 Egg
1 tsp of Vanilla Extract
Red food colouring


Frosting
2 cups Powdered Sugar
1/2 cup Cream Cheese, softened at room temprature (My choice is Philadelphia)
2 tbsp Unsalted Butter, softened at rom temprature
1 tbsp Fresh Milk
1tsp Vanilla Extract


Preparation:

So, while you are preparing the dry & wet ingredients, you may need to preheat your oven at 180 darjah celcius for 20 mins.

And get ready your cupcakes pan with liners. Choose fancy liners for nice plating or pictures ;)

Mix first the dry ingredient in a bowl.

With another bowl mix the wet ingredients except the food colouring.

Then, mix both with hand mixer or use your powerful hand with spatula. Not that hard, just enjoying the mixing.

Once it well mixing, add the food colouring until you get the desired red color.

Use spoon or ice cream scoop to scoop the batter in the cupcakes liner evenly.

And bake between 20 to 25 min.

Wait the cupcakes cool completely, and spread the frosting on top of the cupcakes.

For the frosting, simply mix all the frosting ingredients and get the thick consistency.
