Red Velvet Surprise Cupcakes


I needed to take something sweet to small group the other week and these were perfect! They were easy to throw together and they were easy to transport in the car! They turned out great and might be a new favorite around here!

Cupcake
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup buttermilk
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp red food coloring

Cream Cheese Filling
8oz cream cheese
1/3 cup sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract


Heat oven to 350. Line with cupcake liners.  Whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt and baking soda in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, buttermilk, white vinegar and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix. Add the red food coloring and mix until combined. Fill the cupcake liners halfway with cupcake batter. Drop in 1 tablespoon of cream cheese filling. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the cake is cooked through. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to continue cooling.
