Recipe Summary The Real Red Velvet Cake
Historically, red velvet cake was just chocolate cake tinted red from the acid in cocoa powder, not from food coloring. Nowadays most cocoa powders are alkalized, as in stripped of acid. Look for a non-alkalized one for this old-fashioned recipe. Completing the classic look is a coat of bright white ermine frosting, cooked the old-fashioned way.Ingredients | Eggless Happy Birthday Red Velvet Cake Designscooking spray1 ½ cups all-purpose flour1 ½ cups cake flour½ cup cocoa powder1 ½ teaspoons baking soda½ teaspoon kosher salt1 ½ cups buttermilk2 teaspoons vanilla extract3 ¾ cups brown sugar1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, softened3 eggs, at room temperature1 cup white sugar1 cup whole milk½ cup all-purpose flour, sifted½ teaspoon salt2 cups unsalted butter, softened1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extractDirectionsPreheat the oven to 325 degrees F (163 degrees C).
