RED VELVET CUPCAKES WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING (VEGAN)
These have to be one of the BEST cupcakes I've ever made!! The chocolate extract REALLY makes it, so it's worth finding. As well as the little hint of almond. For the frosting, I've actually used a little less powdered sugar and it was plenty sweet (1 1/2-3/4 cup)

Tips:
- Use good quality cocoa powder: The cocoa powder is the key ingredient in red velvet cupcakes, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a cocoa powder that is labeled "natural" or "unsweetened."
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cupcakes tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use buttermilk: Buttermilk helps to give red velvet cupcakes their signature moistness and tang. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of regular milk.
- Don't overbake the cupcakes: Overbaking the cupcakes can make them dry. Bake the cupcakes for just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
