While I've tried red velvet cake/cupcakes with all butter and all oil, I don't like the overall taste and texture combination with either one standing alone Another contributor to the velvety texture of these cupcakes? The vinegar + baking soda reaction, and a little buttermilk to up the moisture even more. Red velvet cake is not meant to have a super strong chocolate flavor. I top these cupcakes with my go-to cream cheese frosting recipe. I prefer my cream cheese frosting to have more butter than cream cheese, but if you like a super strong cream cheese flavor, you can double the cream cheese and cut.
