Red Velvet Cupcakes

Featured on the latest cover of Better Homes and Garden's Magazine, these Red Velvet Cupcakes are a pretty and delicious choice for Valentine's Day. (This is my pic, but it's similar to the cover shot.) I used the recipe for Chocolate Snaps to make the little chocolate heart accompaniments.

Better Homes also featured a Buttercream Frosting recipe. Though the cupcakes at the top look pretty, my family preferred the delicious buttercream on top. The buttercream frosting is super creamy and easy to pipe or spread. If you use this recipe, you'll need to store the cupcakes in the refrigerator. The Chocolate Hearts were a nice addition.
