Cream Cheese Frosting:

Directions
- Cake: Heat the oven to 350 0F. Line 2 muffin pans with the cupcake papers. In a standard mixing pan, sift together the baking soda, flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. In a large pan gently beat together the buttermilk, oil, food coloring, eggs, vanilla, and vinegar with a handheld mixer. Add these sifted dry items to the wet and mix them until thoroughly combined and smooth. Divide the batter uniformly among the cupcake tins. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Bring out from oven and then you need to make that cool fully before frosting.
- Cream Cheese Frosting: pound the cream cheese, vanilla and butter together in a bowl until soft. Add sugar and beat until integrated.

- Beat in the chocolate and add vanilla extract and milk mixture until fluffy and smooth. Use immediately.
