Cupcake Ingredients:
- 1 scoop Amazing Creamer
- 2 ½ cups flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 large eggs

How to Make Red Velvet Collagen Cupcakes
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, Amazing Creamer, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed for 5 minutes (or until light and fluffy). Beat in the eggs one at a time. Then, mix in the sour cream, milk, vanilla, and food coloring. With the electric mixer on low, slowly beat in the flour mixture from the medium bowl until it is blended, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into 30 lined muffin cups, filling each until they’re ⅔ full. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, and then remove them to cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting, in a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, sour cream, and vanilla extract until it is light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the confectioners sugar and the Amazing Creamer until smooth.

How to Make Amazing Coffee Cake
Preheat the oven to 350°F, and coat a 9 by 13 baking dish with nonstick spray.
Prepare the cinnamon filling by whisking together the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a medium bowl until combined, and set aside. Then, prepare the crumb topping by mixing together the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour in a medium bowl. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, and then set aside.
Prepare the cake by mixing the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed for two minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy. Next, add in the eggs, vanilla, sour cream, salt, and baking powder, mixing for 1 minute until smooth.
Combine the flour and Amazing Coffee together in a small bowl. Then, turn the mixer to low, and add the coffee/flour mixture and milk in alternating portions. Start and end this process with the coffee/flour mixture. Mix until combined and smooth.
Take the prepared pan, and spread in half of the cake batter. Sprinkle the cinnamon filling on top of the batter, and then layer the remaining cake batter on top. Finish by sprinkling the crumb topping on top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean, and then place the pan on a wire rack to cool.
Once the cake is completely cool, prepare the icing by mixing together the powdered sugar and milk, and then drizzle it on top of the cake. Finish off by topping with the berries, and serve!
