Directions:Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Using an electric mixer beat the butter at medium speed until smooth. Once smooth add the brown and granulated sugar to the butter and increase the electric mixer speed to medium-high. Continue beating until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and the vanilla and continue to mix until everything is incorporated.
In a large bowl combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
Add 1/3 of the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until combined. Add half of the red wine and continue to mix. Repeat with 1/3 of the flour mixture and wine. And once that is incorporated add the last 1/3 of the flour mixture.
Add cupcake batter to the muffin tins and place in the oven. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Using an electric mixer, add all of the ingredients to a bowl and mix until smooth. Frost the cupcakes with a spatula or piped out of a pastry bag. Serve and enjoy! |
