To make this Red Velvet Delight, you will need the following ingredients:
For the cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon red food coloring
For the cream cheese frosting:
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
To make the cake, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. In a separate bowl, beat together the sugar and vegetable oil until well combined. Add in the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and red food coloring, and mix until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.
To make the cream cheese frosting, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.
Once the cake has cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. You can also add some decorative touches, such as sprinkles or fresh berries, to make the dish even more visually appealing.
This Red Velvet Delight is a perfect dessert for any occasion, whether it's a birthday party, holiday gathering, or just a special treat for yourself. The cake is moist and chocolatey, with a hint of tanginess from the cream cheese frosting. The frosting is rich and creamy, with just the right amount of sweetness to balance out the chocolate.
