Red Bull Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• For the cupcakes:.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix butter and sugar in a bowl until fluffy. Add eggs, mix again, and then add vanilla.
• Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Also, if you haven't already, measure out the milk and the Red Bull (you can mix them into the same measuring cup, but it looks a little funky.).
• Alternate between adding the dry ingredients and wet ingredients to the batter. Add food color to your heart's desire.
• Fill your cupcake pan with batter.
• Bake for 20 minutes, then let cool. Brush tops with more Red Bull, if desired.
• For the frosting:.
• Cream butter, add half the red bull, then add powdered sugar 1/2-1 cup at a time, mixing as you go.
• Add the rest of the Red Bull for flavor/consistency as desired.
• Add icing coloring as desired to achieve a bright blue.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin tins with paper liners.
• In a small bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large measuring cup, combine the buttermilk, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed for 1 minute, until light. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until combined. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients alternately in 3 parts, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients, and mix until combined. Stir with a rubber spatula to be sure the batter is mixed.
• Scoop the batter into the muffin cups with a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop or large spoon. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean. Cool completely in the pans and frost the cupcakes with Red Velvet Frosting.
• Place the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, and mix on medium speed just until combined. Don't whip! Add the sugar and mix until smooth.
