If you like red velvet, you’re going to LOVE these supremely moist red velvet cupcakes topped with luscious cream cheese frosting.

So let’s get down to details! These homemade red velvet cupcakes, topped with sweet cream cheese frosting, are not only easy to make, they’re also a breeze to clean up after. They are made in just one bowl! Meaning you only have to wash one dirty dish. Can I hear a hallelujah?! Or at least get a high five?

Moving on. The red velvert cupcake base is supremely moist, ultra fluffy, and full of flavor. For the dry ingredients you’ll need flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. The combination of flour and cornstarch ensures a moist and delicate crumb.

For the wet ingredients you’ll need butter, oil, apple cider vinegar, red food coloring, eggs, sour cream, and buttermilk. All of these ingredients are essential and add intense moisture and flavor to the cupcakes. I do not recommend substituting or leaving out any ingredient. This is a recipe I suggest following 100%.
