Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C
• Line muffin cups with chosen paper liners.
• Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium-size bowl and whisk.
• In a small bowl, combine buttermilk, vegetable oil, red gel paste food coloring and vanilla extract and mix well.
• In a medium bowl, with an electric mixer at medium speed, beat butter and sugar for about 4 minutes until creamy and light in color.
• Incorporate eggs, one at a time, beating well. Reduce speed to low and slowly incorporate flour mixture and buttermilk mixture. Beat for 2 minutes or until well mixed.
