Red velvet cupcakes

For this recipe😅, my cups didn't turn out the way I had envisioned because my coloring had been evicted to the dustbin without formal notice and hence look like chocolate cupcakes. 
For the frosting as well I couldn't find the piping bag so I used what was available.
I made the frosting with 1 cup of butter and 4 tbsp of powder sugar which I whisked for about 15 minutes. 
 I used the recipe from https://www.livewellbakeoften.com/red-velvet-cupcakes/
