Red velvet cupcakes

I was thinking about it the other day and ... i have never made red velvet cupcakes before! that should be a crime lol anyway here is my first attempt , their quite moist because of the oil instead of butter and nice and fluffy.
Give it a go :)

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups plain flour
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 cups oil
• 1 1/2 cups caster sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• 1 cup milk (or buttermilk preferably)
• 1-2 tsp red food colouring
• 250g pkt cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1 cup pure icing sugar
• 120g butter, extra, at room temperature
• 1 tsp vanilla essence, extra

Method

1. Preheat oven to 170°C. Line a 12 capacity muffin pan with patty cases. Sift flour and cocoa powder into a bowl.In a separate bowl Whisk oil, sugar, eggs, vanilla and butter in a large bowl until just combined. Stir in flour mixture and milk, Stir in food colouring. 
2. Divide mixture among the lined pans. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centres comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
