Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 °F. Line (2) 12 well muffins tins with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt until combined. Set aside.
- Beat the butter and sugar with a paddle attachment on a mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Mix in the sour cream, milk, food coloring and vanilla.
- Gradually beat in the flour mixture on low speed until just blended. Do not over beat the batter!
- Using a #8 disher spoon ( my trick for muffins and cupcakes, it looks like a large ice cream scoop) scoop a full scoop into the muffins tin liners, leaving the rounded top from the scoop on the top.
- Bake the cupcakes in your preheated oven for 20 minutes or until a toothpick or a cake tester inserted into the middle of a cupcake comes out clean.
- Cool in the muffin tins for 5 minutes then remove from the pans and transfer to a wire baking rack to cool completely.
