Red Velvet Cupcakes would be a great treat to make for Valentine’s Day or any other day you want to make a special treat for someone you love.
Making homemade baked goods is always a nice way to give extra attention to showing someone how much you care.
Try this recipe with Cream Cheese Frosting or Chocolate Ganache.
In fact, you could use a cupcake corer and take out a little bit of the cupcake middle, fill it with chocolate ganache and then top with the yummy Chocolate Buttercream Frosting recipe we’ve included at the bottom of this post.
There are so many variations you could make of this recipe.
