Red Velvet

I made these nice Red Velvet Cupcakes...I dont have a picture, but for those of you who have no idea what it is...Check out Red Velvet Cake. Its the same thing, but the recipie for cupcake's slightly different. Well, mine came out dark orange velvet cake, because the red food colour was not fully red. It was orange red.
Its good with a Cream Cheese frosting and some red sprinkles. Its actually a Valentine day's Cake.
Now this recipie is a bit too much, so I used only half the quantity of Ingredients.
2 1/2 cups cake flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 sticks butter(1 cup)
5 large eggs
1 cup butter milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp red food colour

Method:
1. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Sift it 3 times to get the velvety texture.
2. Cream together butter and sugar till fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
3. Add the dry ingredients and buttermilk alternately, starting and ending with the flour.
4. Mix in vanilla and food colour. Fill cupcake pans half full of batter
5. Bake at 350F for 20 mins.
Frost with cream cheese frosting.
