Red Velvet Cupcakes Recipe {using DC cupcakes secret ingredient}

Soooo, I was recently watching a rerun of DC Cupcakes and all I can remember was how good their red velvet cupcakes looked! In addition my husband had recently told me that one of his favorite cakes was red velvet....on that note, I had no idea he liked red velvet cake (and we have been married for 10 years...), anyways I was searching online for their recipe and of course I never found it. During that rerun one of the sisters said that their secret ingredient for their red velvet cupcake was: apple cider vinegar! So I found 2 recipes online combined them and tweak them a little... btw my 4 and 5 year old helped me make this recipe (excuse the mess)...that's how easy it is to make it!
