Again with the mixer running add in the vanilla extract and buttermilk and form a batter.
Remove half of the batter and set aside.
In the remaining half sift in 1 Tbsp of the cocao powder and the red food colouring and mix.
Divide this mix into 12 cupcake cases and bake at 170°C or 340F for 23-25 minutes.
Take half of the remaining mix and add to 6 cupcake cases and add 1 tsp of cocao powder to the remaining half and fill a final 6 cupcake cases.

Add these to the wreath and use glace cherries to represent holly berries.
Add a bow and enjoy!
