Red velvet cupcakes from Barefoot Contessa How Easy Is That?: Fabulous Recipes & Easy Tips (page 218) by Ina Garten

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    The cupcakes rose quite a bit. Check them early, as mine were done in 23 minutes, and actually ended up dry, so they may have been overbaked. The flavor was good though, with a mild chocolate flavor (more than some red velvet recipes). They have a nice color even without the red food coloring. There was enough frosting for a few extra cupcakes, so you can either be very generous with the frosting, or reduce the quantity a bit, or just have some left over. If reducing the quantity, I recommend eliminating a few tablespoons of butter and using the full amount of cream cheese. I didn't think all the powdered sugar was needed; 3 cups was enough, or you could even use a bit less if you don't like your frosting to be so sweet.
