green velvet cupcakes

ok...don't ask why they are green. i really have no idea. they are supposed to be red velvet cupcakes but i was out of red, and figured green would look nice. i plan to make them over christmas, sans food coloring...what would they be called then? velvet cupcakes?

make them whatever color you want, but i highly suggest you make them. they are yummy.

in a medium sized bowl add the apple cider vinegar to the soymilk and set it aside, letting it curdle.
in a large bowl whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
add the oil, food coloring if you wish, and vanilla extra to the curdled soymilk and stir.
