Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 2 9-inch cake pans. In a bowl, sift together the cake flour, chocolate pudding mix, cocoa powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat 1/2 cup of butter with 1 1/2 cup of sugar with an electric mixer until creamy; beat the eggs in, one at a time, and beat until the mixture is fluffy, about 1 minute. Beat in the flour mixture, alternating with buttermilk, in several additions. Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and the red food color until the batter is uniformly colored. In a bowl, stir the baking soda with vinegar, and gently fold the foamy mixture gently into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean or with moist crumbs, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
- For frosting, place all-purpose flour in a saucepan, and gradually whisk milk into the flour, about 2 tablespoons at a time, until smoothly combined. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat, whisking constantly until thickened and smooth; allow to cool completely. Beat 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 1 minute, and gradually beat in the cooled milk mixture; add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat the frosting until fluffy and spreadable, 1 to 2 more minutes.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl beat the butter until smooth and creamy and set aside in a cool place.
- Have all other ingredients at room temperature.
- Have ready a heatproof pouring container ready for the sugar syrup.
- In a small heavy saucepan heat 3/4 cup sugar and the 1/4 cup water, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is bubbling.
- Stop stirring and reduce the heat to low.
- (If using an electric range remove from the heat.) In the bowl of a stand mixer unsing the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until foamy, add the cream of tartar, and beat until soft peaks form when the beater is raised.
- Gradually beat in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar until stiff peaks form when the beater is raised slowly.
- Increase the heat and boil the syrup until the thermometer registers 248'F to 250'F (the firm ball stage).
- Immediately transfer the syrup to the heatproof container to stop the cooking.
- Pour a small amount of syrup over the whites with the mixer off.
- Immediately beat at high speed for 5 seconds.
- Stop the mixer and add a larger amount of syrup.
- Beat at high speed for 5 seconds.
- Continue with the remaining syrup.
- For the last addition, use a rubber scraper to remove the syrup clinging to the heatproof container.
- Lower speed to medium and continue beating up to 2 minutes or until the bottom of your mixing bowl feels cool to the touch.
- If not completely cool, continue beating on lowest speed.
- Beat in the butter at medium speed 1 tablespoon at a time.
- At first the mixture will seem thinner but will thicken beautifully by the time all the butter is added.
- If at any time the mixture looks slightly curdled, increase the speed slightly and beat until smooth before continuing to add more butter.
- When butter is fully incorporated you may add any of the optional flavorings.
- Place in an airtight bowl.
- Rebeat lightly from time to time to maintain silky texture.
- Buttercream becomes spongy on standing.
- Will keep 2 days room temperature, 10 days refrigerated, 8 months frozen.
- Allow to come to room temperature completely before rebeating to restore texture or it will break down irretrievably.
