Extra Moist Red Velvet Cake Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease pans. (I usually use heart shaped ones) =)
• 2. In small bowl, sift flour, salt & soda together. Add the cocoa powder.
• 3. In larger bowl, beat butter & sugar together. Add one egg at a time. Beat until smooth
• 4. Add wet ingredients to egg mixture. At low speed, add a little (about half a cup) of flour mixture at a time.
• 5. Bake 35-40 minutes for cake, 20-30 minutes for cupcakes ;)
• 6. ***(a good substitute for buttermilk is 1/4-1/2 Tbsp (or even 1/8 of a cup if that's easier for you to measure) of lemon juice + the remainder of the cup of milk... let sit for a few minutes, stir then add)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Grease three 9 inch round pans. Sift flour, salt and baking soda together and set aside. If using cocoa powder mix that with the dy ingredients too.
• Melt semi-sweet chocolate with 1 tablespoon of milk. Set aside but do not let harden. Or if you are using coca powder just sift it in with the flour mixture.
• Beat butter and sugar in a bowl together for approximately 5 minutes at medium speed. Add eggs one at a time and beat until smooth. Add the food coloring and sour cream, milk vanilla and butter flavoring and chocolate squares. At low speed add flour mixture a little at a time but do not over mix.
• Bake in 350 oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until wooden pick comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10 inch cake pans.
• Beat the shortening and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Room-temperature eggs should be added one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the shortening mixture before adding the next. Mix the cocoa and red food coloring in a separate bowl and stir into the shortening mixture. Combine the flour and salt. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing until just incorporated. Stir in vanilla extract. In another separate bowl, mix the vinegar and baking soda. Fold in the vinegar mixture while fizzing; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
• To make frosting: Cream together margarine and confectioner's sugar, then add vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy. Frost cooled cake and sprinkle with walnuts.
