Description

Red Velvet Cheesecake Cupcakes are a perfect Valentine’s Day treat that will satisfy anyone’s sweet tooth, and they’re absolutely adorable, too! A delicious combo of smooth cheesecake on top of red velvet crust.


Ingredients

Red Velvet Layer:

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 5 Tablespoons unsalted butter-softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 Tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • red food coloring

Cheesecake Layer:

  • 12 oz. cream cheese-softened
  • 2 Tablespoons sour cream
  • 5 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

For garnish:

  • 1 ½–2 cups whipped cream
  • heart shaped sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line cupcake pan with cupcake liners and set aside.
  2. To make the red velvet layer, stir together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together, then set aside.
  3. In a large bowl beat the butter on high speed, until creamy. On medium speed beat in the sugar until combined. Then, beat in egg yolk, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix in food coloring.
  4.  Add dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix in on low speed. Add more food coloring if needed.
  5. Spread 1 Tablespoon of mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner (The mixture will be very sticky).
  6. Bake 6-7 minutes to pre-bake the crust (slightly prebaked crust will rise and sink in the center, and that’s OK).
  7. To make the cheesecake layer beat the cream cheese on medium-high until smooth, then add sour cream and sugar and mix until combined. Add the egg white and vanilla and mix on medium speed until combined. Do not overbeat or the cheesecake will crack. Add 2-3 Tablespoon of cheesecake mixture on top of the red velvet, spreading it to completely covers.
  8. Bake for about 18-20 more minutes, until cheesecake topping is no longer jiggly when you shake the pan. Tent loosely with aluminum foil to make sure the tops of the cheesecake does brown.
  9. Cool for 30 minutes at room temperature, then refrigerate to set for 1-2 hours. Before serving top with heaping Tablespoon of whipped cream and garnish with sprinkles if desired.

Re the red food coloring. No amount listed – is it just to whatever color we want? Recipe sounds scrumptious!!!!!!!!!

Hi Janet, the amount of red color you’ll need depends o what type of color you use, gel, liquid…Some has more intense pigment than others

Hey ! I was wondering , when doing the cheese cake mixture I usually use a whole egg and not just the white. Why did you use the white alone?

Reply
Patti March 5, 2021 - 3:00 pm

I would also like to know the reason for not using the whole egg, and why this question hasn’t been answered in almost 2 years.

Love the cream cheese mixture but, the red velvet didn’t taste like red velvet.
Plus, I cooked for 6 minutes and they looked great but, after adding the cream cheese and baking for 18 minutes the bottom cake was very dense and close to being burnt.
I even lowered the temperature since I was using a dark nonstick pan.
