I cooked the milk and flour in the microwave, stiring every 30 seconds.

The batter and final product are both so delicious. I don't even know the right words to describe it. I used this recipe to make Despicable Me Minion cupcakes and the cupcake was wonderful. My only issue is with the cream cheese frosting recipe. It might have been an operator error, but the frosting wasn't fluffy and thick and was a bit runny. I will definitely make the frosting again, as it had the an incredible flavor, but I'll have to make some adjustments.

I just made the frosting (for some red velvet cupcakes--but not the ones from this recipe) and it was good. I would make it again.

I thought the cake was a bit dry.

My daughter, 11 years old, made these cupcakes for a group of her friends and they were so delicious. They are light and moist, everyone raved about them. This will be a staple recipe for cakes in our house now!

Yum! I really enjoyed this recipe. Normally I am weary of corporate-sponsored recipes, but this one is a hit!

Would not make these again, I felt they were too dry and not sweet enough. I followed the recipe exactly as stated, and didn't make any changes. I think the cocoa flavor was overpowering, my boyfriend said they tasted like chocolate cupcakes.

I only had a half bottle of red food coloring and they still came out excellent. Moist, and delicious, didn't change anything else.

I thought this recipe was good in the sense that the cake was moist and quote good, but calling it Red Velvet is a misnomer. While the cake has a reddish coloring, it doesn't have the taste of actual red velvet and is missing many of the ingredients to make it so. I wouldn't make this again.

I only made 2 changes, I used 1/4 cup of cocoa, and 2 1/4 cups of flour. The result was very moist and rich! There was plenty of chocolate. I baked in 2 9 inch pans for about 35 min. I used a different cream cheese frosting. 1 pkg cr. cheese, 1 cube butter, 3 3/4 cups conf. sugar, & 3 tsps vanilla. This is now my favorite cake!
