Red Velvet Cup Cakes

Kali pertama buat RED VELVET CAKE, keknya tak berapa menjadi. So kali ni aku nak cuba buat red velvet cup cakes plak. Kebetulan esok ada makan2 kat ofis. So bolehlah try kan! Resepi yang lama macam tak menjadi bila aku cuba. So kali ni aku cari resepi lain yang menggunakan minyak sayuran sebab bila guna minyak konpem kek atau cup cakes akan jadik moist. (Nih aku punya teorilah). Jumpalah BLOG ni. Resepi dia aku ikut petak2 jugak. Jom jenguk resepinya macam mana.

Ingredients
Dry Batter Ingredients
• 1 1/3 cups sifted cake flour (Softasilk).  (Aku guna Superfine Floor dan doublekan kuantiti) 
• 1 1/3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 TBSP unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 tsp salt

Wet Batter Ingredients
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup sunflower seed oil
• 2 TBSP red food coloring
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tsp distilled white vinegar

Directions
1.    Make Red Velvet Cupcakes:
Adjust oven rack to middle position. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line cupcake pan(s) with cupcake liners. (Yang ni aku guna microwave. Set high temperature). 
2.  Using a stand mixer or electric handheld mixer, mix all dry batter ingredients together in a large mixer bowl. In a separate large bowl, mix together all wet ingredients on low.
3.    Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients 1/3 at a time, mixing in between on low setting. Mix until batter is smooth.
5.    Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full with batter, evenly distributing to all liners. Place pans in oven and bake for 25 minutes for jumbos, 20 minutes for standards, 15 minutes for minis, or until toothpick comes out clean from center of cupcake. (Aku set untuk satu cup selama 50 saat. So kalo 8 cups sekali masuk dalam 1 minit 30 saat hingga 2 minit). Remove pans from oven and allow cupcakes to cool in pan for 15 minutes. Trying to pick them up out of the pans too early may leave dents in the still soft tops and cup liners. After which, it's best to remove cupcakes and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack or counter before frosting.

Untuk cream cheese aku masih gunakan resepi yang asal dari AZLITA MASAM MANIS.

Cream cheese frosting
125g cream cheese
50g unsalted butter
80g powdered sugar
1 cup fresh cream, whipped until stiff

Cream Cheese frosting:
1. Beat cream cheese with butter until soft.
2. Turn mixer to low speed, add powdered sugar a little at a time. Whisk until well blended.
3. Add whipped cream, stir through with a spatula.

Dan....inilah hasilnya. Taraaa.......memang moist dan boleh tahan berhari2. Simpan dalam fridge pun boleh terasa moist lagik. Maaplah yer kalo deco tak menarik sebab main taram je.
