Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cupcake or muffin pan with 18 paper liners or coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the devil's food cake mix and unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix thoroughly to ensure an even chocolate flavor.
Add the buttermilk, red food coloring, and egg whites to the dry ingredients. Using a handheld or stand mixer on medium speed, mix the ingredients until smooth and well combined.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake the cupcakes in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
While the cupcakes bake, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to beat the fat-free cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and creamy.
Once the cupcakes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Frost each cooled cupcake with the cream cheese frosting using a spatula or piping bag.
Serve and enjoy your guilt-free red velvet cupcakes!
