Red Velvet Cupcakes & Cream Cheese Icing

What You Need:
1 1/2 Cup of Sugar
2 sticks of butter (softened)
4 eggs
2 small bottles of red food coloring
2 tablespoons of Cocoa
1 teaspoon of vanilla 
1 cup of buttermilk
2 1/2 cups of self rising flour
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon of vinegar

Mix ingredients, mix well after adding each ingredient.
Spoon into cupcake liners.
Bake about 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. This will make tons and tons of cupcakes or a three layer cake. That is actually what I normally make. I made 36 cupcakes and 24 mini cupcakes from this recipe!!

Cream Cheese Icing:

 What you Need:
2 8oz packages of cream cheese
4 cups of powdered sugar
just a little milk
3 teaspoons of vanilla

Mix ingredients well until there are no lumps!
