FOR THE DOUGH: Start by beating together butter, sugar, egg, vanilla and a pinch of salt for a couple of minutes. Add the two types of flour, the cocoa and the chile pepper. If you find some habanero chocolate, use it instead of the classical chile pepper. Its fruity flavour will wonderfully combine with the bitter taste of cocoa. At last add the milk and the cream of tartar and knead energetically till the dough is smooth. Fill 12 cupcake liners with the dough and bake them at 180°C/360°F for about 20-25 minutes. Let them cool completely before decorating them. FOR THE FROSTING: Combine cream cheese, mascarpone and sugar. Divide the frosting in two parts. In the first one add the vanilla and a some red icing color. In the second half add the saffron. Let the frostings rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Fill a piping bag with the red frosting, and squash the sides a little bit to cover the inside of the bag. Open up the bag again; drop the yellow frosting in the middle and push it down a little bit , this will create the two tone flaming effect. Close the piping bag and decorate your cupcakes.
