  • 1 tsp (5 mL) water
  • 3 to 4 drops red food colour

Steps

  •

    Beat cupcake mix, water, oil and egg in medium bowl on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes (or beat with whisk until well blended), scraping bowl occasionally.

    Divide batter evenly between the 12 cups, filling each about 1/2 full.
  •

    Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes; carefully remove from pan and allow to cool completely before frosting.
