Sugar Free Red Velvet Cupcakes

Last night I made sugar free red velvet cupcakes for my husband's birthday (and some reduced sugar too). I used a sugar free Sweet'N Low chocolate cake mix and then the Pillsbury Reduced Sugar Devil's Food cake mix to make more. Instead of adding one bottle of red food coloring to both, I split a bottle between the two batches and they turned out nicely. The sugar free mix is also cholesterol free and it only used water (no eggs or oil) and so those are a little denser but still taste delicious! I used this Sugar-Free Chocolate Cupcakes recipe from dLife for the sugar free icing recipe (only I deviated slightly...I didn't look at the directions well enough for the icing until after I bought the ingredients and I realized I wasn't sure where to put heavy whipping cream so I just added it at the end)...for the sugar free instant pudding, I used the sugar free cheesecake flavor (Yum!)...after mixing all the ingredients I let it sit in the fridge for about 5-10 minutes to harden up and then used a pastry bag to top the cupcakes...don't have a picture yet but will take one tonight!

Comment by Lindsey on October 21, 2009 at 2:12pm: wow all that sounds pretty good! how long did it take to make it all? i always feel like going sugar free or reduced sugar is so time consuming compared to just making a cake mix and slabbing on the icing!
