Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tbsp All Purpose Flour/Maida
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 tbsp White Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
  • 6 tbsp any odorless oil I used Canola
  • 1 tbsp Red Food Color
  • 1 cup milk I used 2 percent
  • 3-4 tbsp water as needed to thin out the batter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F/180 C
  • In your cupcake pan,place liners or grease and flour
  • Warm milk and add vinegar and keep aside for 5 minutes(This makes instant buttermilk)
  • In a bowl,mix all dry ingredients, making sure there are no lumps(No need to seive,just use a spoon to break any lumps)
  • Add wet ingredients-oil,food color and buttermilk(oil vinegar mix)
  • Mix well.
  • Add 3-4 tbsp water as needed to make it into a thin batter.
  • Use a scoop to fill cupcake liners 3/4 full.
  • Tap the cupcake pan a few times on the countertop to remove any air pockets.
  • Bake in middle rack for 18-20 minutes or till a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Cool completely before frosting.

Notes

Warm the milk to lukewarm before adding vinegar(30 seconds in the microwave is enough). It is important to have a thin batter to have a moist cake. I used an additional 3 1/2- 4 tbsp of water. Can be baked in an 8-9 inch cake pan.If baking into a cake,bake for 25-30 minutes or till toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
