Rocky Road, Red Velvet Cupcakes – Recipe

If it looks like there is a lot going on with these cupcakes…you are right.  The cupcake is Red Velvet and the lumpy frosting you see is a marshmallow, chocolate chip walnut mix.

A few things….

The topping is actually cool whip and cake mix.  Once you whip it up, you add in the chocolate chips and walnuts.   The recipe recommends using an ice cream scoop for the frosting but only if you have a smaller one.

I also have to admit that believe it or not this is my first red velvet recipe of any kind.  I had no idea that red food coloring is used to create the “red”.  I know it makes sense, but it’s something that I never really gave much thought.

This is a quick easy recipe.  Don’t be intimidated by the looks.  Little effort and great results.  Click the recipe button below….and Bake!
