Re: Have you ever had Red Velvet Cake??
It is basically chocolate cake with red food coloring- im sure you can leave it out if you want... this is the recipe that I use:
Sylvia's Red Velvet Cake Recipe from Sylvia’s Family Soul Food Cookbook, by Sylvia Woods and Family, published by William Morrow, 1999
For the cake: 2 1/2 cups sifted cake flour 2 teaspoons cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened 2 large eggs 1 cup buttermilk 2 ounces red food coloring 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar 1 teaspoon vanilla
For the Frosting: 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter or margarine, softened 1 pound box confectioners' sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup chopped pecans
For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 2 (9-inch) cake pans. In a medium bowl or on a piece of waxed paper, sift together flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, cream together sugar and butter. Beat in eggs one at a time. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk. Beat in food coloring and vinegar, then add vanilla. Spread the batter evenly in the pans. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Turn out onto a rack to cool. For the frosting: In a large bowl, cream the cream cheese and butter. Beat in confectioners' sugar until fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Stir in pecans. Use frosting to fill and ice cake. Slice and serve on individual plates.
