Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F). Line a 12-cup cupcake/muffin tin with
cupcake liners and lightly spray the liners with non-stick spray, set aside.
2 Place the butter in a large, microwave-safe bowl. Place the bowl in the
microwave and melt the butter, heating it in 30 second increments, stirring in
between each increment. Add in the oil and vanilla and whisk smooth. Add in the
sugar and whisk until well combined. Add in the eggs and egg yolk, one at a
time, beating well after each addition. Add the flour, cornstarch, cocoa powder,
baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients and lightly combine
them with a whisk before beating them into the mixture, stirring until it's just
combined - be sure not to over mix here! Whisk in the apple cider vinegar and
buttermilk and whisk smooth. Fold in the sour cream. Finally, stir in the food
color, whisking the mixture just until combined.
3 Divide the batter among the lined cupcake molds, filling each 3/4 of the way
full (you will have enough batter for about 18 cupcakes). Bake for 15-17
minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool
completely before frosting.
4 In a large bowl using an electric handheld mixer, beat the cream cheese, butter,
and vanilla on medium-high speed until completely smooth; about 2 minutes.
Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the sifted confectioners' sugar and
salt. Once all of the sugar has been added beat on high-speed for 1-2 minutes.
Once the cupcakes have completely cooled, spread the frosting over the cupcakes
or use a piping bag to pipe it into decorative swirls. Store these cupcakes in
the fridge, covered, for up to 3 days.
