I received this recipe from my friend Summer. I had to make cupcakes for a Relief Society Birthday party and she suggested these. It was the best frosting I have ever had. They turned out really yummy. Thanks again Summer.
Red velvet cupcakes
1 pkg. Pillsbury German Chocolate cake mix with 1 cup pudding in the mix
*if you don't buy Pillsbury with pudding in the mix add 1(3.4 oz vanilla instant pudding)
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 (1 oz. bottle red food coloring)
3 large eggs
1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350. Place cake mix, sour cream, water, oil, food coloring and eggs in mixing bowl. Blend for 30 seconds. Scrape down sides and beat 2 minutes on medium speed. Fold in the choc. chips. Fill cupcake liners with 1/3 cup batter (makes 24 cupcakes). Bake at 350 for 18-20 min. Remove and let cool for 15 minutes before frosting.

cream butter and cream cheese together. Add brown sugar, vanilla and salt. Add 2 cups powdered sugar at a time. I used 6 cups powdered sugar.
