Ingredients
2.5 cups of flour1.5 cups sugar1 tsp. baking soda1 tsp. salt1 tbl. cocoa powder1.5 c. canola oil2 lg. eggs, room temperature1 c. buttermilk, room temperature1-1oz. bottle of red food coloring1 tsp. white vinegar1 tsp. vanilla
Directions
Sift the dry ingredients together and set aside. Put the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vinegar and vanilla in mixing bowl and beat on low. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet and mix until smooth and well incorporated.

Line 2 cupcake tins with paper liners. Fill each liner 2/3 full. I use an ice cream scoop so each cupcake is the same size and they all bake evenly. Bake cupcakes in over at 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes, turning pans once, half way through. Remove from oven and cool completely. Frost with cream cheese icing.
