Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup buttermilk

- 1 tbsp green food coloring
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
- Combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl.

- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with the batter.
